Proceeding contribution from Anthony Steen (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 24 February 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Unitary Authorities.
Unitary Authorities
My hon. Friend referred to the meeting between the electoral commissioners and Devon Members. The commissioners did not say that they could not entertain any possibility of Plymouth or Torbay authorities being widened, extended or disbanded; they had been directed by the Secretary of State to exclude any such possibility. That is the point that the Minister must deal with. Why were the commissioners told that the authorities had to be left alone?
