Local Audit and Accountability Bill

Proceeding contribution from John McDonnell (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 17 December 2013. It occurred during Debate on bills on Local Audit and Accountability Bill.

I am the secretary of the National Union of Journalists group in Parliament. There needs to be a discussion between Departments. We are working with the Department for Culture, Media and Sport and will hold a seminar in the new year to discuss how we ensure that all Government Departments can assist in the development and support of the local press. A Member on the Government Benches suggested publishing local material in the local media or on a wrap-around basis, which would support the print industry and the local press.
