Proceeding contribution from Nick Hurd (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 11 March 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Assistance to Communities.

Assistance to Communities

I congratulate the right hon. Gentleman on his speech. He makes an important point about the Compact. He might be aware that the Minister herself recently transferred funds that were committed to charities, without any consultation, and admitted to the House of Commons that she was in breach of the Compact. Does the right hon. Gentleman regret that decision, and what powers would he like the commission for the Compact to have had in that context?
