Proceeding contribution from Vincent Cable (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 28 October 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Local Growth White Paper.


Local Growth White Paper

I do not share the hon. Gentleman's concern, because several of the strongest bids were from the west midlands, as he knows—Birmingham, Solihull, Coventry and Warwickshire, among others. The strategic oversight and the help that we need to give to the automobile industry—he is right to continue to emphasise that and to pursue me about it—will be pursued through the Automotive Council, which is one of our most successful sectoral bodies.
