Localism Bill

Proceeding contribution from Oliver Colvile (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 17 January 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills on Localism Bill.
Does my hon. Friend recognise that urban conurbations do not have the same opportunities to engage as parish and town councils? The Local Government Act 1972 allows for referendums in villages, but they would not necessarily be held in urban conurbations and cities such as Plymouth. Would it not be useful to include that in the Bill?
