Conservatives back self help solutions

Conservative housing spokesman, Grant Shapps MP, has signaled his support for self help solutions to tackle inner city deprivation. New Start reports his comments in a speech to Royal Institute of British Architects. Mr Shapps said: “We will encourage power to be exercised at the very lowest levels of local government, by which I mean parish, ward, but also street level in order to force faster change directed by the very people it will most affect.”
