Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hanham (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 30 June 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Local Government Bill [HL].
Local Government Bill [HL]
My Lords, the court made a decision only on the first clause—that is, to stop the reorganisation. It did not make a decision on the second clause, which relates to the election of the councillors. One-third of the councillors had their elections postponed until 2011. As things stand, they would have to have their elections immediately if this was not quashed or if we did not make a change in the Bill.
