Proceeding contribution from Lord Greaves (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 19 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HL) on Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Bill.

Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Bill

I agree. I was not suggesting that there is a huge diversity in standards of probity but that there is great diversity in the culture of councils and the way in which they do things. Despite the attempts over the years to impose uniformity from above, that still exists. I have never been to Kent County Council, but I have no doubt that if I went there, I would find a unique organisation which does quite a lot in rather different ways from county councils that I know better in the north of England.
