Historia
The Association of County Councils (ACC) was formed in 1974 and succeeded the County Councils Association which was founded in 1889. The ACC represented the views and interests of the county councils of England and Wales. This was achieved through activities such as holding conferences and regular meetings, education and training, scientific/systematic research, exhibitions. the collection of statistics, providing an information service and library, holding negotiations on pay and conditions of employment, and meeting with government on particular issues. The membership extended to 46 county councils in England and Wales.
The ACC was incorporated into the Local Government Association (LGA) on 1 April 1997. The LGA itself was formed by the merger of the ACC, The Association of District Councils (ADC) and the Association of Metropolitan Authorities (AMA) to represent the interests of principal local authorities in England and Wales. The County Councils Network (CCN) formed in 1997 to address issues of specific importance to County Councils.
