As part of a radical reform programme, the number of councils is dropping from 26 to 11.

It’s understood the appointments will initially be made by ‘Statutory Transition Committees’ in advance of the creation of the new councils in 2014.

These new councils will then operate in shadow form alongside the existing 26, before taking up their full range of responsibilities in April 2015.
