Lib Dem Group Leader, Paul Morse has attacked the Conservative administration at County Hall after they voted for plans to shelve a Local Government Review, "I wonder what the hoardes of district Tories who only put themselves up for election to the county to protect their local fiefdoms are going to do now. It is clear that this motion has only been put forward to attempt to paper over the very obvious cracks within the Conservative group at County Hall."

This is the second time the Conservatives have attempted to disrupt the Local Government Review at County Hall. Their earlier attempt proposed by Breckland Council Leader William Nunn was withdrawn under pressure from Party Chairman, Eric Pickles.
