The Minister of State's amendment and our amendment are both trying to achieve something similar. I am interested to know how "relevant interests" are to be defined or judged in individual settings? My other question relates to how immediate the surroundings are. I will take a few real-life cases, without prejudice to people's views on either side of the debate, for example, the situating of a road in close proximity to a national monument or the siting of a hotel in a place where it would visually intrude on a national monument. What is the Minister of State's sense of what the definition of "immediate surroundings" would do and how would it be practically applied? Perhaps he has a real-life example.
