I apologise for my delay in replying which is owing to absence on leave. The Council consulted with the following: Local MPs; political parties; young people; ethnic minorities; the local strategic partnership; Citizens' Panel; local residents; parish and town councils and parish meetings; the business community; council staff. Yours sincerely Liz Ashness -----Original Message----- From: Jonathan Graham Harston [mailto:jgh@...] Sent: 13 June 2007 22:09 To: Liz Ashness Subject: Changing Electoral Cycle I am researching the process needed to change a council electoral cycle, and found your report of 3rd November 2004. The new Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Act Bill going through Parliament requires councils to "consult such persons as it thinks appropriate on the proposed change". Can you tell me who Broadland Council consulted on its changes. Thank you. -- J.G.Harston - jgh@arcade.demon.co.uk - mdfs.net/User/JGH Councillor for Walkley Ward, Sheffield City Council
