Government support for regeneration in Reddish

Backbench debate (separate chamber, no votes)

Labour MP Navendu Mishra will use a Westminster Hall debate to press the government on support for regeneration projects in Reddish, a town in his Stockport constituency. Westminster Hall debates allow backbench MPs to raise local and specific issues with junior ministers, typically seeking commitments on funding, policy support, or recognition of local economic needs.

This affects residents and businesses in Reddish who depend on regeneration investment to improve economic prospects, housing stock, and local amenities. The debate signals whether the Labour government intends to prioritise post-industrial towns in the North West, an area that has faced decades of relative economic decline.
