Ms Annette Brooke (Mid Dorset & North Poole, Liberal Democrat)
I hope that the Minister will explain the balance between local and central decision making. I envisage that decision making will primarily be a local matter because the local returning officers know the most appropriate places for the delivery centres. There is a balance to be struck and I would be grateful if he addressed it.
