Proceeding contribution from Lord Bellingham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 18 January 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Parish Councils (Planning).


Parish Councils (Planning)

When the hon. Gentleman went on his travels around his constituency—I do not know whether he went on horseback or in a caravan—did he discover that the smaller parish councils in particular were having ever more onerous regulations, such as the code of conduct, imposed on them? Are not they also, however, having their powers reduced and are they not being listened to less and less?
