Government changes to planning laws so companies can frack under people’s homes without telling them doesn’t change the fact this is unlawful if the landowner later says no, says Greenpeace. 

 Planning minister Nick Boles announced yesterday that fracking firms will be able to drill for gas and oil under peoples’ homes without notifying the owner personally, because telling them would be too burdensome.
