NOTTS: Who voted for unitary

Nottinghamshire County Council.Nottinghamshire County Council.
Nottinghamshire County Council.
Councillors from across Nottinghamshire voted today to go ahead with plans to scrap district and borough councils and create a new authority for the whole of the county.

Supporters say it would simplify local government, and help councils save millions of pounds a year.

However critics say it will erode local decision making, and will be divisive and overly complex.
