This consultation seeks views on the proposal to enable Harrogate Borough Council to use the general power of competence with confidence in hosting the Grand Départ of the Tour de France 2014. The proposal would see the Secretary of State using his powers from Section 5(1) of the Localism Act to disapply parts of the Harrogate Stray Act 1985 from 23 June to 8 July 2014 for defined areas of the Stray for the sole purpose of hosting the Tour de France.
