Today’s announcement that Norwich City Council is to become a unitary authority, responsible for all local services, has been welcomed by the Green Party.
Adrian Ramsay, MP Candidate for Norwich South, said: "A unitary council for Norwich will strengthen local democracy, ensuring that decisions for Norwich are taken by councillors elected by Norwich residents, rather than councillors from rural areas. A unitary council is only justified when it brings power closer to the people - that is why a unitary Norfolk would have been disastrous, and why the Green Party Councillors fought hard to avoid such a decision".
