☘ ☘ PM International Investment Summit Speech say he wants to ‘enable the builders not the blockers’.. 🌳 Prime Minister Keir Starmer delivered a speech at the International Investment Summit on the 14 October 2024 making reference to the need for planning to support growth and to restrict regulation and asking a series of questions as to whether it will make our economy more dynamic; inhibit or unlock investment?; or does it enable the builders not the blockers? 🏢 Continuing to say: “But we’ve also got to look at regulation – across the piece.  And where it is needlessly holding back the investment we need to take our country forward… Where it is stopping us building the homes… The data centres, the warehouses, grid connectors, roads, trainlines, you name it… Then mark my words – we will get rid of it. Take the East Anglia 2 wind farm. A £4 billion investment. One Gigawatt of clean energy. An important project – absolutely. But also the sort of thing a country as committed to clean energy as we are… Needs to replicate again and again. Now regulators demanded over four thousand planning documents for that project… Not 4000 pages – 4000 documents. And then six weeks after finally receiving planning consent… It was held up for a further two years by judicial review. I mean – as an investor… When you see this inertia… You just don’t bother do you? And that – in a nutshell… Is the biggest supply-side problem we have in our country. So it’s time to upgrade the regulatory regime… Make it fit for the modern age..” 🚦 The full speech can be viewed below: #planning #newhomes #homes #houses #build
