Local Leadership Groups
Following the local election in Bristol in May 2007 the leadership of Bristol City Council has changed from minority Liberal Democrat control to minority Labour control. The proposals prior to May to roll out Local Leadership Groups (LLG) across Bristol during 2007/08 have now been changed. LLG's were to consist of the councillors from a cluster of wards. LLG's will now form part of Neighbourhood Partnerships that are to be rolled out across Bristol during 2007/08.
