Valerie raises Walsall Leather Museum at Business Questions

At Business Question on Thursday 30 October 2025 I raised the issue of the Leather Museum. and the lack of information from Walsall Council and Walsall College.

I asked the Leader of the House:   

“May I place on record my thanks to the Leader of the House for all his support? He was a brilliant Chief Whip, and at least now the nation gets to share his wit and wisdom.

May we have an urgent debate on the accountability of institutions for the use of public money? Walsall College and Walsall council are closing the iconic Leather Museum against the wishes of local people, but no financial information is available. Please could we have such a debate on the accountability of financial information?”

The Leader said I should apply for an Adjournment debate which I did immediately after Business Questions.
