Nigel Huddleston

Conservative — Droitwich and Evesham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 29 October 2026

Debate

Local Government Reorganisation

Contribution

The Minister cannot stand at the Dispatch Box and say that the Government are not imposing local government reorganisation, and then say that the status quo is not an option. Is he fully aware of the chaos, cost and uncertainty that this indecision is causing in Worcestershire? If I understand correctly, we have local district council elections next year, a unitary election the year after, and maybe—for what mayoralty we do not know—a mayoral election. Does that make sense to him?
