Local Government Bill [Lords]
I thank my hon. Friend for being gracious enough to find time to give way, unlike the Opposition Front Bencher. Does my hon. Friend agree that although we have heard an awful lot of figures for savings that can be made from a change to unitary status, the real savings come from not spending money on any reorganisation at all, and instead letting local councils share services, without the on-costs that unitary status brings?
