committee-speechlisted

Write the speech you will actually stand up and deliver at a UK planning committee, against an application. Use this whenever someone is speaking, or might speak, at a planning committee and needs the words — "write my three-minute committee speech", "we have two objector slots, split the points", "I'm speaking against this application on Thursday", "what do I say to the councillors", "help me with my deputation", "how do I object in person". Takes the grounds already assembled by the other skills in this repo and turns them into timed, speakable objector speeches that move a committee toward refusal, deferral, or approval on tighter conditions — selecting the few points that can change a vote, framing each as the decision members are actually taking, and sequencing them across the speakers without overlap. Objector-side by design, and says so. Will not manufacture grounds that are not there. England-focused. Not legal advice; no warranty; output requires human review.

# Committee speech Somebody has a slot. It is two, three or four minutes, it happens once, and it is heard by members who may not have read the papers closely. This skill writes what they say. **A committee speech is a different instrument from a written objection.** The objection is read at leisure by the case officer, who is paid to read it. The speech is heard once, aloud, under a clock, by people deciding a dozen items in an evening. So the job is not to compress the objection. It is to **select** the few points that can move a vote, **frame** each as the decision the committee is actually taking, and **sequence** them across the available speakers without repetition. Adapted from a skill contributed by **JH** — see `CHANGELOG.md`. The speech craft in it is theirs. ## Scope: this writes objector speeches, and says so **This skill argues one side.** It is for the person standing up to oppose an application, and it is written as their advocate. That is a deliberate choice and it is declared here rather than disguised, because the rest of this repo is careful about neutrality and a reader is entitled to know where the posture changes. It is legitimate for the same reason `policy-representation` is: **an objector is a party**, and writing a party's case at their instruction is not the same act as an analysis skill quietly taking a side. What would not be legitimate is pretending the output is balanced. It is not. **The integrity constraint survives the advocacy, and it
