Proceeding contribution from Hazel Blears (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 9 July 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Communities in Control.
Communities in Control
Again, my hon. Friend has a great record on supporting his community. He also has a four-star, excellent local council—it is one of the best in the north-west—that is not afraid to devolve power to the community. We often find that the best councils are the most confident with that agenda, because they see community involvement not as a threat, but as a means of strengthening the way in which they actively represent their area.
