Proceeding contribution from Lord Watts (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 8 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on Local Government Finance.


Local Government Finance

Government Members suggest that just one or two deprived councils are being hit the hardest, but the document by SIGOMA—the special interest group of municipal authorities—shows that the vast majority, if not all, of the most deprived authorities are being hit the worst, while those in the most affluent areas, often represented by Conservative Members, are in some cases receiving more grant.
