Proceeding contribution from Lord Lilley (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 October 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Local Government White Paper.


Local Government White Paper

Does the Secretary of State agree that one of the greatest restrictions on local accountability, prioritisation and efficiency is the ring-fencing of funds by central Government, who specify in increasing detail how and on what money is spent? She has set a target to reduce targets, so will she ring-fence the amount of ring-fencing? What does she propose to do to reduce the amount of ring-fencing?
