Proposed by Cllr Gant, seconded by Cllr Garden

Liberal Democrat motion

Given the Secretary of State said in a recent interview that he wants to introduce changes to the planning system that allow local people to protect environmentally sensitive land like Green Belt, and SSSI to "hand it onto the next generation", this Council calls on the leader to write to the Secretary of State for Housing Communities and Local Government stating its agreement with that principle.

This motion was not taken as the time allocated for debate had finished.
