Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Bernard Jenkin (Conservative), on Wednesday, 26 November 2003, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 42 members in total.


REGIONAL ASSEMBLIES (no.5)

That this House believes that a referendum on regional government for the West Midlands would be a costly and unnecessary distraction from the real concerns of people throughout Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Shropshire, who want better public services and have no need for a costly reorganisation of local government or for a new tier of politicians and bureaucrats, which by removing powers from local government would make decisions more remote from the people, not closer to them.
