Why is this subject being brought up now? Is it a national requirement, because the arguments for and against were discussed ad nauseam 10 years ago when Hyndburn first had the option of an elected mayor under the provisions of the Local Government Act 2000.

There was no support for it from the Conservative group.

What has changed since then, other than a Council leader worried about next May's elections?
