Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether she has made an assessment of the potential merits of including technology-based solutions in proposed environmental delivery plans in the Planning and Infrastructure Bill.

Environmental Delivery Plans would be able to consider a range of different types of conservation measures.

This may include technology-based solutions, where such solutions could address potential negative effects of development on the environmental features with which the plan is concerned.
