Which Council Does What?
Local Government delivers a wide range of services but sometimes it is difficult to know what you can get from each level of local authority (And also what is provided by Central Government or utility companies).
Sometimes it seems that there is little sense behind who does what. For example, did you know that the County Council* runs the refuse disposal and recycling centres but the District Council* is responsible for collecting our rubbish while the Parish Council runs the dog bins?
