Public Libraries: Stockport
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether his Department has had discussions with Stockport Council regarding the condition of Reddish Library.
Answered by Miatta Fahnbulleh
My Department has held no specific discussions with Stockport Council regarding the condition of Reddish Library.
The Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) is responsible for public library policy and the Libraries Improvement Fund. DCMS intends to publish a new English public library strategy later this year to emphasise and support their position at the heart of communities and their pivotal role in improving the lives of working people.
