Could be worrying news for Heathrow Expansion
The government has survived a Labour rebellion over plans to speed up the planning process for big projects such as airports and nuclear power stations. A bid to ensure ministers get the final say on decisions by an independent body was rejected by 303 votes to 260.I think this is extremely worrying news and could of course now mean that any plans for the proposed third runway would be fast-tracked and objections severely curtailed.Is this a get out clause the Keens will grab with both hands if the Heathrow expansion is approved by the government?
