Lancashire Local - West Lancashire
The Lancashire Local Committee is a joint committee made up of an
equal number of county councillors and district councillors from
West Lancashire - it's been set up to:
- bring decision making on county functions closer to
communities
- strengthen policy making to reflect local needs
- develop more joint working between the county council and
district council
Councillors from West Lancashire District Council meet with
county councillors for the area to discuss a variety of important
issues. At the meetings district councillors have an equal voice
and the same voting rights as locally elected county
councillors.
Public participation
Whilst members of the public can attend meetings of Lancashire
Locals and speak about matters on the agenda before decisions are
taken, the Local is not primarily about community engagement. At
the start of each meeting there will be a 30 minute slot during
which members of the public can ask questions and comment on items
appearing on the agenda for that meeting.
