Proceeding contribution from Clive Betts (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 8 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on Local Government Finance.
Local Government Finance
Is it not incredible that this nest egg of money has been trailed before councils, which are to put in bids for a scheme we are not sure about? No prudent council would formulate next year's budget on the basis that there might be some money at some time coming from the Secretary of State. Also, it is completely wrong of the Deputy Prime Minister to criticise Sheffield council for not taking account of this possible money before setting its budget for next year.
