MP & Other Bodies Responsibility

  • Tweet

Residents in Cheadle are represented by a range of democratically-elected representatives and decision-makers. They have specific and largely discrete areas of responsibility.

This guide provides an non-exhaustive overview of the responsibilities of your local MP Mary Robinson, as well as Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council, Greater Manchester Police & Crime Commissioner and Greater Manchester Fire & Rescue Authority.

The aim is to help local residents identify who is responsible for the area of law and/or policy. Please contact the relevant organisation directly, so your query can be dealt with efficiently, rather than being passed from one organisation to another.
