Clause 54 - Appeal against veto
Local Government Bill
2:45 pm
Mr Andrew Turner (Isle of Wight, Conservative)
It is extraordinarily difficult to see how a local authority can act reasonably when it has vetoed a BID post ballot, having failed to exert its influence sufficiently strongly through all the mechanisms that are available effectively to veto that BID pre-ballot. Is it not almost inconceivable that a local authority could be acting reasonably in so doing?
