We introduced the Levelling Up and Regeneration Bill to the House on 11 May this year.
This sets out a wide-ranging set of changes to put communities more in control of planning decisions which affect them and drive better outcomes on the thing’s communities care most about: the design of development, infrastructure delivery, the environment and their local neighbourhoods.
