Clause 7 - Licensing committees
Licensing Bill [Lords]
3:00 pm
Mr Kevan Jones (North Durham, Labour)
Unfortunately, the Bill should be renamed the Westminster city
council Bill because everything seems to be being skewed towards Westminster. Is it not a fact that if there were more councillors, more officials would be needed to administer the paper work and to prepare for the committees? As my hon. Friend the Member for Waveney (Mr. Blizzard) said, increasing the number of councillors is irrelevant.
