Running Lifton Parish Council under COVID-19 Restrictions

In order to continue as far as possible with the continuation of business under Covid-19 restrictions, an emergency delegation has been made in line with advice from NALC, DALC and national Government.

All decisions that have been taken by the Clerk as Proper Officer of the council under the Emergency Scheme of Delegation as a result of the Coronavirus Bill 2020 and associated Government Restrictions will be kept on a register. The register is made in accordance with the 2014 Openness of Local Government Bodies Regulations. This register will be reviewed at the relevant monthly meeting following any new decision(s) taken by the Clerk as Proper Officer.

Prior to this meeting, if you have any further questions on the emergency delegation and the continuing work of the Lifton Parish Council, please contact Sue Willis, Parish Clerk at parishclerk@liftonpc.org.uk

Lifton falls within the Borough of West Devon and with a population of 1180, plays an important role as a local centre for jobs and services. 

Parish Councils 
Parish Councils are an essential part of the fabric of local democracy in this country and play a key role in our villages. They operate as non-political bodies serving the community by dealing with local issues and working closely with the borough councils to keep them in touch with the needs of the people from smaller communities.
