1973 county council election in England
Elections for West Yorkshire County Council were held in April 1973, which resulted in a Labour lead for the new Metropolitan Council.[1]
Council | Conservative | Labour | Liberal | Independent | Other | Control |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
West Yorkshire | 25 | 51 | 11 | 1 | 0 | Labour |
One month later, in May 1973, Metropolitan District Council elections were held for Bradford, Leeds, Halifax, Huddersfield and Wakefield.[2] The county council was abolished thirteen years later in 1986.[3]
