Oxfordshire County Council survives
Oxford City Council's proposal to split Oxfordshire into three unitary authorities has been rejected by the Government.
The City Council wanted three single-tier councils - North Oxfordshire, South Oxfordshire and Oxford City - to replace the current two tiers of county and district. West Oxfordshire District Council and Oxfordshire County Council were both opposed to the City Council plan, but other district councils had given it qualified support.
