Rachel Reeves says a Labour government will overhaul Britain’s “antiquated planning system” to “get Britain building again”.
The shadow chancellor will promise to accelerate the planning process for critical national infrastructure, during her speech at Labour’s annual conference in Liverpool. Decision times for major infrastructure projects have increased by 65 per cent since 2012, now taking four years, she will say, promising a “once-in-a-generation” set of reforms to speed this up.
“The Tories would have you believe we can’t build anything any more. In fact, the single biggest obstacle to building infrastructure, to investment and to growth in this country is the Conservative Party itself. “If the Tories won’t build, if the Tories can’t build, then we will. Taking head-on the obstacles presented by our antiquated planning system. “So, today, I am announcing our plans to get Britain building.
