Local Government Bill 2003: Committee Stage.
There is a real need for change involving local communities, modernising the system and the way councils work, etc., but it is not being done in the Bill. Councils should lead the community in a more positive fashion than they have in the past. There is a need for a partnership between central Government and local government. All of this must be included in any proposals the Minister brings forward.
