The like-with-like here is a sequential process where one seeks to substitute consent and then one seeks a planning permission versus a simultaneous process where one seeks substitute consent and a planning permission at the same time and effectively get to skip a stage in the process. I think it is a concern. I accept we disagree and because we disagree so fundamentally on it, it is very difficult for me to amend this section. It would be worth considering even just the point on related development because it is different if it is a matter of a related development that someone might say "I have done this, could I change this and do it this way?".

Could the Minister confirm that it is not required to be a related development but it can be a different development in terms of that land that is not related to the current process which does not have appropriate planning?
