Local Authorities (Changes to Years of Ordinary Elections) (England) Order 2025

Contribution

That this House regrets that the Local Authorities (Changes to Years of Ordinary Elections) (England) Order 2025, laid before the House on 11 February, damages the democratic accountability of local authorities to local residents, and has not been subject to full and proper consultation (SI 2025/137). Relevant document: 18th Report from the Secondary Legislation Scrutiny Committee (special attention drawn to the instrument).
