Social Care

Debate between Faisal Rashid and Lindsay Hoyle

Wednesday 25th April 2018 Commons Chamber

[Faisal Rashid (Warrington South) (Lab)]

Warrington Borough Council faces funding pressures of more than £3.3 million to meet its adult social care needs in 2018-19. Does my hon. Friend agree that it is up to the Government to support councils in their efforts to provide quality social care to their communities, not to pass the buck—

[Mr Deputy Speaker (Sir Lindsay Hoyle)]

Order.

[Faisal Rashid]

On to council taxpayers in my constituency or any other?

[Mr Deputy Speaker]

Order. I need to correct that. When I say “order”, it means you should stop. I am not trying to cause any problems. We must have short interventions. If not, I will have to put a time limit on speeches. Intervene, by all means, but interventions must be short.
