Q145 Alistair Burt: I have a couple of questions. First, there have been 26 proposals for unitary status. The White Paper said that you were looking for eight that you might have the opportunity to process. Are you going to stick to eight, or are you going to try to make the most of those 26? Surely the more there are to consider, the more unacceptable it is in terms of public expenditure?
