Early day motion 1015, tabled 9 March 2009 by Lord Mann (Labour). Signed by 25 members.

That this House welcomes the additional Local Authority Business Growth Incentive money released by the Government this month to local authorities; believes that all such money, including that unspent from previous years, must be spent supporting local businesses; condemns those local authorities which have failed to use this money to support local businesses; and demands that the Government makes them do so.
