The Full Council meeting of Lancashire County Council on Thursday 12 March 2026 saw significant debate on road maintenance, drug policy, and youth engagement, alongside decisions on council allowances and pay policy. A key outcome was the defeat of a motion calling for urgent action on road repairs, despite widespread acknowledgement of the issue. The council also voted to support a motion affirming the principle of a secret ballot in elections, following concerns raised about family voting.
