Proceeding contribution from Kate Green (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 18 November 2010. It occurred during Urgent question on Socio-economic Equality Duty.


Socio-economic Equality Duty

Perhaps I can help the hon. Member for Wellingborough (Mr Bone). In the poorest wards in my constituency, my local authority—Tory-controlled Trafford—has repeatedly under-invested in public services, from addressing health inequalities to sweeping snow from the streets. In the absence of the socio-economic duty, how can my poor constituents be sure that they will not continue to lose out?
