Proceeding contribution from Lord McKenzie of Luton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 10 October 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Localism Bill.


Localism Bill

Again, I am grateful for that. I hold to the view that although it may help in some instances, being named separately in a category with a potential council tax increase that was greater than that of most other authorities could itself engender enquiries, concerns and speculation over what might be going on. There is no easy way round this but I am happy to accept the Minister’s assurance that this type of issue could be dealt with through the mechanism that he identifies. I am content to leave it there and beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 195H withdrawn. Amendment 195J not moved. Amendment 195K Moved by
