Proceeding contribution from John Hayes (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 9 July 2008. It occurred during Legislative debate on Council Tax.


Council Tax

The right hon. Gentleman makes an interesting point, but would he differentiate between the burden on police officers as a result of bureaucracy, much of which, although not all, comes from this Government, and the efficiency of the authority? The Government commissioned an investigation of the authority by PricewaterhouseCoopers that found only minimal room for savings, which would have made little difference to the fundamental funding crisis that we are discussing today.
