Nottinghamshire CC abandons reorganisation plan

13 December 2018

Nottinghamshire County Council has decided to drop its reorganisation plans, which the leadership had hoped would save the authority millions each year.

Councillors yesterday decided against holding a formal consultation on plans to replace the county’s two-tier system with a unitary authority.

It was hoped the plan – which financial experts Deloitte described as ‘robust’ — would deliver £27m of annual savings through a reduction in senior management positions, support services, councillors, and by finding other savings.

However, county council leader Kay Cutts today announced she would withdraw the plan.
