Redcar and Cleveland Council has removed ‘Yorkshire' from its address, claiming the link with the historic county is bad for business. Councillors voted last week to delete ‘Yorkshire' from their address and replace it with ‘Redcar and Cleveland'. A motion proposed by Cllr Richard Rudland said: ‘This council is concerned that the inclusion of Yorkshire as part of the council's postal address is contrary to this authority's commitment to economic development and strategic planning within the Tees Valley.'
