The L.G.A. 2000: Executive decision-making

Mark Heath, LL.B., Solicitor, Dip.LG., Solicitor to the Council, Southampton City Council

This is the first in a series of three articles examining the impact of the Local Government Act 2000. It examines the impact upon decision-making in local government. The second article will examine the ethical framework and the third will review particular issues of relevance to rights of way. The three articles are designed to provide both the practitioner and those who engage with local authorities with a clear indication of the changing world in which the highways function is now discharged at local government level.
