Proceeding contribution from Peter Bone (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 10 July 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Regulatory Enforcement and Sanctions Bill [Lords].


Regulatory Enforcement and Sanctions Bill [Lords]

I just want the Minister to acknowledge that this is a centralising measure. Whichever way we look at it, it takes power away from local authorities. Whether that power moves up to the quango or all the way up to Whitehall, it is centralised. The Minister might think that there are benefits to it, but will he please confirm that it is a centralising measure?
