Local Government Finance

Proceeding contribution from Andrew Pelling (Independent (affiliation)) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 3 February 2010. It occurred during Legislative debate on Local Government Finance.
The hon. Lady was quite right to underline how she is talking about the urgency of reform. She mentioned gearing, and a strong example of that is the London authority, where the gearing is one in 12—the system there is ridiculous. As there is urgency, do you feel that a Liberal Democrat-influenced Government would seek an urgent change to the local government financial system in the first year?
