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


Localism Bill

My hon. Friend makes an important point, and I know that she is very involved with the Crossroads Care charity and does an incredible amount of work in Congleton. In Macclesfield, the Bollington leisure centre is owned and run by the community, the Gawsworth village shop is owned by the community and the successful treacle market is run by the community. Is not that the way forward, rather than looking to state-based solutions every time, as the Opposition suggest?
