Business question from Richard Younger-Ross (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 17 November 2005. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

Could the Minister of Communities and Local Government come to the House to make a statement, following his answer to a question that I asked yesterday on the powers given to regional assemblies? He implied that no new powers were being given to the regional assemblies, but the regional development agencies are firmly of the opinion that the new devolved transport budget will be made by regional assemblies. Can the Minister come back to the House and clarify the position? If not, could the Secretary of State for Transport come and tell us who will decide how the transport funds are distributed?
