East Devon MP unhappy at council staff move to Honiton

A local MP has joined the debate over the controversial relocation of East Devon district council.

The local authority plans to move out of its current premises in Sidmouth in 2017, and split staff between two offices in Honiton and Exmouth.

East Devon MP Hugo Swire has told the leader of the council he's not happy about some employees moving to Honiton - which is outside his constituency.

And he's suggested putting the relocation on hold until after the announcement later this year on possible changes to the structure and funding of local government.
