Debate between Viscount Younger of Leckie and Baroness Janke
Viscount Younger of Leckie
I hope that that will be the prevailing philosophy but I emphasise that it is a wide-ranging review that will include a robust analysis of the trends in the use of non-domestic property and property values covering a range of areas.
Baroness Janke (LD)
Is the Minister aware that many vulnerable communities depend on charitable organisations, particularly in the light of the public service cuts? Will he give an undertaking that before any such measures may be introduced, the impact on the most vulnerable communities will be assessed and taken into account?
Viscount Younger of Leckie
I feel sure that those views are already being taken into account, as will the views being expressed by the House today. The noble Baroness makes a good point.
