Proceeding contribution from Lord Beith (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 24 October 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Bill..


Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Bill

In the Secretary of State's letter to district councils, he acknowledged that"““whilst there is support””—" for the two-authority proposal—"““from a broad range of stakeholders””—" so it met that criterion—"““the proposals lack support from any key public sector stakeholders.””" So it is all right if one has broad support, but one also has to have public sector support. All six districts are public sector stakeholders, of course, and they supported the proposal, so we come back to the chief constable. How many votes does a chief constable have?
