Context
Higginbotham visited businesses in Burnley and Padiham that had made efforts to become covid-secure.
Question
He asked about Burnley's long-term economic revitalization, noting that it missed out on the towns fund previously.
Answer from The Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government Robert Jenrick
I can give my hon. Friend exactly that commitment and help to reassure his constituents. I know that Burnley is benefiting from the historic high streets heritage action zones. We will also shortly bring forward the competitive round of the towns fund, where Burnley will be able to apply. I very much look forward to seeing his application, and I support and strongly endorse the campaign of his local newspaper, the Burnley Express, and encourage his constituents to support their local business community by finding time to shop local.
