Proceeding contribution from Andy Slaughter (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 2 March 2011. It occurred during Estimates day on Sure Start Children's Centres.

Sure Start Children's Centres

I will try to keep this non-party political, but since the hon. Gentleman makes that point, I will ask him the same question that I asked the Chair of the Education Committee. If councils are closing most of their Sure Start centres, should we just shrug and say, ““Well, that's a matter for localism””, or, given what the hon. Gentleman has said, should the Minister take an interest?
