Soulsby’s ‘100 pledges in 100 days’
Leicester’s new mayor has outlined 100 pledges to be delivered in 100 days.
Sir Peter Soulsby, formerly MP for Leicester South prior to running to become the first mayor of the Midlands city, said he had plans to repair 1,000 potholes and bring back free-swimming for the under 16s during school holidays.
He also said he would also publish clear job descriptions for his team so the public knew what to expect.
"Our 100 days programme sets out our immediate priorities for action in the city," said Sir Peter.
"It does not include everything we will be doing but it does show how we have been shaping our plans to address the wide and varied challenges Leicester faces."
Sir Peter Soulsby became Leicester's first elected mayor in May.
