Labour — Newcastle-under-Lyme

Speaking in the House of Commons on 22 January 2026

Debate

Local Government Finances: Surrey

Contribution

I thank the hon. Gentleman for letting me take the debate from Surrey to Staffordshire. There is concern in Newcastle-under-Lyme about what a potential new unitary may look like and about whether the debt of current councils will be carried over to it. I want to add my concerns to his. This is not a party political issue; it is about ensuring that people are not forced to pay off the debt accrued by others.
