LGA: Let councils decide

A spokesman for the Local Government Association (LGA) comments on Grant Shapps announcement about removing the obstacles for councils to abolish unwanted byelaws:

“Councils and the residents they represent are best placed to set rules and regulations which reflect the issues in their areas.

“Anything which makes it easier for councils to abolish an out-dated byelaw or instate a much-needed new one to better serve their communities is a good thing.”
