Proceeding contribution from Brian Iddon (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 12 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Manchester City Council Bill [Lords](By Order).


Manchester City Council Bill [Lords](By Order)

Is my hon. Friend as concerned as I am about the utter waste of public money involved in all this? Each of the Bills before us costs its local authority about £100,000, given the amount of their officers' time that is taken up. The one for Newcastle is alleged to have cost nearly £200,000.
