Town and Country Planning (Telecommunications Masts) Bill — 21 May 2004 at 12:49

Gillian Merron MP, Lincoln voted in the minority (Teller for the Noes).

I beg to move, That the Bill be now read a Second time.

The measures in the Bill are of significance to many people in my constituency and other constituencies up and down the country. At the outset I should like to put on record my appreciation for the overwhelming cross-party support that I have received and the enormous encouragement from outside the House. Since the Bill's First Reading, my postbag has been filled with letters from the four corners of the country expressing support.

Question put, That the Bill be now read a Second time:-

The House divided: Ayes 10, Noes 2.
