At County Hall I today addressed delegates at the annual conference of the Cornwall Association of Local Councils.
The Government envisages a central role for Town and Parish Councils in delivering the Big Society, and I was delighted to be able to outline to Councillors new powers proposed in the recent Localism Bill.
It was good also to have the opportunity to thank councillors for all their commitment to the communities they represent, their dedication and hard work being all too often overlooked. I also valued the useful discussion that followed and look forward to meeting with them again in the near future.
