Redirected from Unitary authority area
Scotland and Wales consistently use unitary authorities. They have been becoming common in England since the 1990s. However the two-tier arrangement (increasing to three-tiers, for the remaining counties) has remained in a different form due to the introduction of a regional level of administration.
Listings of unitary authorities in England can be found by region.
A unitary authority in New Zealand refers to a territorial authority (district or city) which does not have an encompassing regional council. They are listed under Region (New Zealand).
