PROPOSALS to roll out a more localised test and trace system in north Oxfordshire were shut down by Conservatives at a full council meeting. Liberal Democrat councillor Katherine Tyson put forward the motion in solidarity with both Oxford city and Ian Hudspeth, leader of Oxfordshire County Council, to call for the Government to enable local schemes to be built on. The motion, seconded by Green councillor Ian Middleton, asked the leader of Cherwell council to communicate support for a more local system to the director of public health and the leader of the county council, and to write to MPs asking to support a more localised system across the county.
