Cornish Governance

EDM number 2860 in 2005-06, proposed by Julia Goldsworthy on 25/10/2006.

That this House looks forward to the opportunity afforded by the forthcoming Local Government White Paper to promote decentralised and democratic principles; welcomes plans emerging in Cornwall to work with central government to draw down powers from unelected regional and departmental bodies, create a strengthened strategic voice for Cornwall, and ensure that subsidiarity and local accountability is promoted and cost efficiency is maximised; and looks forward to the co-operation of the Government in working with Cornish elected representatives to develop improved government for Cornwall.

This motion has been signed by a total of 19 MPs.
