According to the LGA’s FirstOnline site:
Councils would have a new duty to promote democracy, under government plans announced this week.
I’m glad that democracy is going to get some attention and I like the sound of lively campaigns. Right up our street. This announcement again highlights the lack of democracy in the LGA’s "my council" campaign.

Whilst promoting Democracy is important I really hope that there is a strong emphasis on encouraging greater participation in democracy at a local level.
