Proceeding contribution from Justine Greening (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 3 February 2010. It occurred during Legislative debate on Local Government Finance.
Local Government Finance
Councils are under so much pressure that they are being pressed to go out to their local communities and fund services by raising council tax. Local authorities now have a raft of extra measures to deliver that have never been properly funded. In fact, there is a live one here in London on concessionary bus fares—[Laughter.] I am sure that many Labour Members find that entertaining—[Laughter.]
