Mr Gagan Mohindra

Conservative — South West Hertfordshire

Speaking in the House of Commons on 26 March 2026

Debate

Local Government Reorganisation

Contribution

I am sure that my hon. Friend the Member for Hamble Valley (Paul Holmes) will appreciate this question. Labour-run Southampton city council has huge debts, and Liberal Democrat-run Eastleigh has £800 million-worth of debt. Given the proposal for them to be merged, will the Government do anything about that debt, or will they allow the new council to fall immediately?
