Clause 53 - Power of veto
Local Government Bill
2:30 pm

Mr Derek Conway (Old Bexley and Sidcup, Conservative)
I hear what the hon. Member says and, indeed, that is good practice. I received the bundle to which he refers in the post, but some members of the Committee may not have done. The method of supplying the papers is not prescribed, but the point that he makes about good practice may be helpful. If the Under-Secretary wishes to comment, that would be useful.
