Last January: Amber Rudd, the then parliamentary undersecretary of state for climate change, told MPs: “We have agreed an outright ban on fracking in national parks [and] sites of special scientific interest.” ... " the Government [has] removed the words “except in exceptional circumstances”
Now: MPs have voted to allow fracking under Britain’s national parks, amid accusations that the government has sneaked the measure through parliament without a proper debate.
Ministers used a statutory instrument to push through the new rules, which means legislation can pass into law without a debate in the House of Commons.
