English Devolution and Community Empowerment BillContribution
267: Title, line 2, leave out “councils” and insert “authorities”
Member’s explanatory statement
This would change the long title of the Bill to refer to “local authorities” instead of “local councils”. This would reflect the inclusion of clause 73 and Schedule 30 in the House of Commons (which relate to National Park Authorities and the Broads Authority).
