Proceeding contribution from Ed Miliband (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 18 October 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Third Sector Review.


Third Sector Review

In two ways: first, by the Charity Commission being absolutely clear about what is and is not allowed; and secondly, by the other measures that we are taking to strengthen the support for local campaigning through investment by Capacitybuilders. [Interruption.] The right hon. Gentleman says that that is completely different. This is a question of attitude. It is about whether one thinks that campaigning to change our society is a fundamental part of what third sector organisations are able to do or that such campaigning is illegitimate. If that is what Conservative Front Benchers think, that is entirely their decision.
