Proceeding contribution from Philip Davies (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 15 June 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Sustainable Communities Bill.
Sustainable Communities Bill
I congratulate my hon. Friend on getting his Bill to this stage. In terms of new clause 6, I agree with the thrust of what he says: local people know best and they should have more control over things. However, does he agree that the Bill is only as good as the Secretary of State, and that it is implicit in it that the Secretary of State thinks that local people know best? Does he have confidence in that?
