answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/12/2018 answer text <p>Local authorities in England have a statutory duty to provide a comprehensive and efficient library service that meets local needs.

Where DCMS receives a complaint that a local authority may be failing to meet its duty, we will carefully consider the evidence before deciding if a local inquiry is needed. The Department is currently handling eight complaints to determine whether the changes to library service provision mean that these are no longer providing comprehensive and efficient library services.</p> answering member printed Lord Ashton of Hyde question first answered 03/12/2018 16:18:13 answering member 4247 label Biography information for Lord Ashton of Hyde
