Proceeding contribution from John Healey (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 5 February 2008. It occurred during Legislative debate on Local Government.
Local Government
I am not quite sure what point the hon. Gentleman is trying to make. I have clearly stated that from the outset of this process we had five tests that we required any proposal to meet and to pass. Wiltshire's proposal was one of those that we received. We gave an indication of that in March and confirmed it in July. One of the tests involved a broad range of support sufficient to give us the confidence that were we to give this the go-ahead it would have a reasonable chance of succeeding.
