Proceeding contribution from Lord Jackson of Peterborough (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 26 February 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Sustainable Communities Act 2007 (Amendment) Bill.


Sustainable Communities Act 2007 (Amendment) Bill

Obviously, I pay tribute to my hon. Friend's long service in local government and to the House. Surely, however, he is not suggesting that there is a mutually exclusive problem between local spending reports and compulsory competitive tendering. In fact, that greater transparency, brought about by local spending reports, would assist local people at all levels in understanding the tendering process and the services provided by local councils.
