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


Local Government Finance

My hon. Friend will be aware that Liverpool city council is one of the highest ranking in the indices of multiple deprivation, yet it suffered an 8.8% cut worth £91 million last year, it is having a £50 million cut this year and a £25 million cut next year. Can he understand the Minister's argument that this new methodology will somehow make things fairer?
