Proceeding contribution from Nick Hurd (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 19 January 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Sustainable Communities Bill.


Sustainable Communities Bill

To clarify matters, I have met the head of policy at the Federation of Small Businesses and she has confirmed to me personally and in writing that the federation supports the principles of the Bill. Does it not cause the hon. Gentleman some concern that the reservations of the British Retail Consortium, which he placed before the House, seem to be restricted to the incremental bureaucracy that the Bill might impose on local government? Does he think that that is the biggest issue exercising minds around the boardroom at Tesco?
