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
In a moment—I need to respond to the hon. Member for Dudley North (Ian Austin) first. Let us consider a number of local authorities. Some have been talking about thousands of redundancies. I do not want to appear partisan, but Sheffield is talking about 250. Sunderland, a Labour council, is not planning percentage cuts in its Supporting People provision. Walsall is not planning to make an overall cut in its voluntary sector funding. It is possible to deal with the situation.
