Labour (Co-op) — Oldham West, Chadderton and Royton

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 November 2026

Debate

Nolan Principles

Contribution

I know that the hon. Gentleman raised the same point at Prime Minister’s questions last week, and it is clearly concerning. There should not be that type of conflict. I have written to him today, and he should have a copy of the letter in his office. We take such matters seriously. I have asked the Department to conduct an urgent best-value assessment of the local authority. Meetings are taking place with officials and the council’s chief executive to find out exactly what is going on.
