Nobody on this side of the House made frivolous accusations. In speaking about this section let us refer to its fundamental aspect – that the power of councillors is being taken from them and given to county managers. The Minister is well aware that this is setting a very dangerous precedent. I urge him to look again at this section before we drive the role of the councillor further into the ground. This section of the Bill deals with the denigration of councillors, as any councillor across the range of councillors' organisations will testify.
