Proceeding contribution from John Battle (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)

I put it to my hon. Friend that Westminster city council had legislation passed in 1999, and it has not come back to the House to change it. Perhaps if hon. Members consulted that council, they would find that its experience demonstrated that the legislation gave it a satisfactory resolution that other councils need—but only in the short term, until there is a framework, so that legislation is not built up piecemeal.
