Various LG Acts give powers to help authorities function
It's up to local authorities to decide whether they should use their powers to tender for commercial contracts - that's according to Infrastructure Minister Ray Harmer.
Speaking in the House of Keys this morning (28 Mar) he says authorities must determine if it's appropriate after considering the details of separate tenders.
MHK Lawrie Hooper asked the minister what legislation gives local authorities the power to tender for contracts with government, or the private sector
Mr Harmer says various Local Government Acts give general powers to authorities to do anything which helps them function and provide services.
The minister, however, stressed he could only speak in general terms:
Plans for 'all-age pathway' for adult autism and ADHD diagnosis by 2029
Some trailers got 'lost' during recent backlog of freight at Heysham
Police told to reassess FOI response
Census support available from next week
Mobile classroom needed to 'alleviate' pressure at Henry Bloom Primary School
