Proceeding contribution from Robert Neill (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 5 February 2008. It occurred during Legislative debate on Local Government.


Local Government

I am sorry to trouble the Minister again, and I am grateful to him for his patience in giving way, but this is an important principle and it will recur. As five criteria are proposed, can he give us an indication of on whom the onus of meeting those criteria rests? Secondly, what are the criteria for saying whether or not the test is passed? Are the same criteria used in relation to every such proposal, or do they vary? What standard must be met by a proposing authority to show that its proposal passes the test?
