Proceeding contribution from Lord Pickles (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 9 February 2011. It occurred during Debate on Local Government Finance.
Local Government Finance
I will give way in a few moments. The phasing of the settlement will be challenging. Councils can choose how they respond. Some have chosen to wring their hands and say that it is all too hard, or to play politics with front-line services. Others have chosen to step up and to protect vital local services, reducing every trace of waste, protecting the most vulnerable and reforming services to deliver better results for less.
