Proceeding contribution from Stephen Williams (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 26 October 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Transport (Investment).


Transport (Investment)

I welcome the fact that value for money is being confirmed for the Bristol bus rapid transit scheme from Ashton Vale, which is in your constituency, Madam Deputy Speaker, to Bristol Temple Meads, which is in mine. However, following what the Secretary of State said earlier about localism, will he agree to look favourably on local authorities such as Bristol that wish to introduce a levy on workplace parking in the future, so that money raised locally can be matched with the limited resources that are now available nationally?
