Business of the House

Business question from Jim Sheridan (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 13 November 2008. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
May we have a debate on adequate funding for public services? If we have learned anything from the recent by-election in Glenrothes, it is that people respect and want decent public services. Although it sounds popular to announce a council tax freeze, it comes with consequences, which often affect the most vulnerable people in our society. Given that the official Opposition are going down the same route, will my right hon. and learned Friend assure the House that the Government will not be tempted to do likewise?
