The leaders of all four parties came together on Salisbury City Council after no party won a majority in May's elections.

But last month the Conservative group withdrew from the all party administration amid concerns over the focus of the administration following a planning meeting and the accountability of a four-way leadership arrangement.

In a statement today the City Council said the "leaders of the Liberal Democrat and Labour groups, Victoria Charleston and Ian Tomes, and Independent Annie Riddle will continue to work together in the best interests of the city."

The current focus of the new administration is a four year strategy to support the vision of a building a 'green, inclusive city.'
