Centre for Women & Democracy Annual Report 2007/8

What effect has the introduction of 9 new 'super unitaries' had on the representation of women? CFWD's research finds that it's not good, and as a result we have some recommendations for what government could do to improve matters.

The Effect of the New Unitary Authorities on the Representation of Women

The 2008 issue of our report on Leadership & Gender in Local Government in England shows that there has been a very small increase in the number of women council leaders, a very small increase in the number of women chief executives, and also identifies women deputy council leaders.
