REFORM OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT

Tabled by Cecil Franks (Conservative) 32 signatures

The motion

That this House notes the continuing concern over an effective structure for local Government in England and Wales; believes that the present two tier system encourages waste and weakens accountability; and calls upon Her Majesty's Government to abolish the present two tier structure and replace it with a single tier of all-purpose local authorities.
