This is the list of documents available for the submission By Councillor Kieran Wild:- "Council welcomes the publication by the cross party group, the Commission on Strengthening Local Democracy, called Effective Democracy: Reconnecting with Communities. Council supports the report's key recommendations to promote decentralisation and devolve more powers to local government. Council acknowledges that local democracy would be reinvigorated by greater accountability and the enablement of at least 50% of income to be raised locally. Council instructs the Leader of the Council to write to the Scottish Minister for Local Government and Planning seeking a fundamental review of the structures, boundaries, functions and democratic arrangements for all local government in Scotland, adopting the key findings of the report as a framework.".
