Navigate the rules that shape parish councils, district duties, and county transfers with clear, practical guidance. This edition explains powers, responsibilities, and how sections of the act impact everyday decisions in local government.

The book translates complex legal text into workable guidance for parish councillors. It highlights how duties extend beyond borders, how rights of way interact with neighboring areas, and how transfers to county councils change who handles key tasks. Readers will find plain explanations of licensing, public health measures, and the handling of local authorities’ powers.
