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


Alcohol Strategy

In the town of Deal that I represent, residents are beset in the early hours of the morning by drunks returning home, smashing up property and fights breaking out. The district council says that there is nothing it can do because of the rules brought in by Labour's 24-hour drinking culture. In changing the rules, will the Home Secretary give real power and discretion to the district councils?
