Localism Bill

Proceeding contribution from Hazel Blears (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 17 January 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills on Localism Bill.
In a moment. We are setting out for the worst of all possible worlds. We will raise expectations and then set people up to fail, thus setting this whole community empowerment agenda back years and years; I think there will be an awful lot of disappointed people. If we look at the pubs support package, we see now that no support is available. A community in my constituency wants to take over the Woolpack in Salford. These great local people need help with a business plan, finance and mentoring, but no support is available from this Government to enable them to take over that pub.
