The first issue I have with this is the secrecy of the process that it went through. Nobody was consulted before it was radically announced, but people who work in this area—the councils, the planning experts, the builders and developers, none of them were consulted. And now we're going to see it rushed through before Christmas, when they don't even have enough time to look in great detail about what this will mean for the future. There is no reason to change our planning rules and chuck them out overnight because National and Labour both want to kick this for touch.
