BOUNDARY COMMISSION

Following the publication of the Boundary Commissions first thoughts, Cllr

Geoff Date stated “ I support the Boundary Commission’s main recommendation for a Unitary Devon. My reasons for this are that I would hate to see the Education Service, Social Services and Highways split into 4 unitarys, with 4 Chief Executives, 4 Directors of Education, etc. Also I like the idea of 29? Neighbourhood Boards, with Budgets of around £200,000. These boards would include parish councillors.
