Proceeding contribution from Lord Newby (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 26 May 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Government Spending.
Government Spending
Over the next few weeks, we will meet to decide exactly how we intervene in debates and, indeed, exactly where we sit. For today, we agree that it was necessary for the Government, in the light of the European economic circumstances, to take quick action to demonstrate their resolve on the budget deficit. On a specific point, I urge the Minister to abolish quickly those regional development agencies that are to be abolished, and to confirm quickly the status of those that are to remain so that they can continue with their valuable work.
