Abolish the Greater Manchester Combined Authority
We are calling for the abolition of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority as an unwanted, expensive and undemocratic tier of government we do not need.
We want all powers of this bureaucratic "quango" given to the ten districts, within the "Greater Manchester" boundaries.
In doing so, we also call for as many powers as possible to be returned to town councils, parish councils and urban district councils which were abolished in 1974, to ensure local services, villages and towns are managed by local people for the benefit of their communities.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
