Proceeding contribution from Baroness Bray of Coln (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 17 January 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Localism Bill.


Localism Bill

Does the hon. Gentleman also welcome the abolition of the Standards Board for England? Under that dreadful, anti-democratic device, which was brought in by the previous Labour Government, all sorts of decent, hard-working local councillors were always under the threat of petty allegations being made, often for partisan reasons, undermining local authorities.
