Unitary Restructuring

I have received a letter from Bob Neill MP on the Conservative Party's view on further Unitary restructuring.

I thought this may be of interest to some of you as we (The Conservatives) often get blamed for the restructuring in Cheshire East. Those who followed the news at the time will know that it wasn't our idea and we didn't want to do it - but when the decision we made we threw ourselves into it and did the best job we could.

(Which for the record, I think was a fantastic job. But then I am biased).

His note reads:
A Conservative Government will not support any further unitary restructuring, as we believe it is expensive, time-consuming, unproductive and divisive. The financial case for reorganisation has been comprehensively demolished by the respected academics Professors Chisholm & Leach in their book Botched Business, which is well worth reading.

We will stop the unitary restructuring plans for Norfolk, Suffolk and Devon if they have not been brought into force by the time of the general election.
