Proceeding contribution from Lord Cormack (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 October 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Local Government White Paper.
Local Government White Paper
Having heard what the Secretary of State said on the ““Today”” programme and her statement to the House, may I ask her why, if she truly believes in local government and local choice, she is seeking to impose a certain formula for leadership? Is she not aware that many local people have no time at all for the mayoral concept and that many local councils believe that recent changes have emasculated the participation of ordinary councillors in their councils’ deliberations?
