Proceeding contribution from Tobias Ellwood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 23 March 2012. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Alcohol Strategy.


Alcohol Strategy

This is an important issue for Bournemouth. We have a vibrant and popular town centre as part of the local economy, but it has suffered because of the previous Government and their reckless Licensing Act, which has been very costly to the town centre. The residents are concerned that there are simply too many pubs and clubs there. Will my right hon. Friend expand on her comments on density and powers that might be given to local authorities?
