Lord Fuller (Con)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 September 2025

Debate

Local Audit (Amendment of Definition of Smaller Authority) Regulations 2025

Contribution

As the noble Lord, Lord Shipley, was speaking, I was looking at the RPI tables from the Office for National Statistics. Had the £6.5 million been increased by inflation, it would have been £10.3 million. So we are seeing a proposed threshold that is fully 50% greater than the increase in inflation over the same period. I just wonder whether that might help the noble Lord’s argument.
