Norman Baker
2008-07-08
That this House congratulates Councillor Carla Butler on becoming the youngest ever person to chair Lewes District Council; further congratulates her on, according to the Brighton Argus, becoming the youngest ever person, at 26 years of age, to chair any council in the UK; notes the under-representation of young people in party politics; believes that the contribution of younger councillors on councils is invaluable; and encourages the active involvement of young people in local government, local politics and local communities.
