Regional council of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes edit

  • ... that Jean-Jack Queyranne proposed that the regional council of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, like the European Parliament, hold alternating sessions in two cities? Source: "Dans un premier temps, Jean-Jack Queyranne, l’ancien président socialiste, avait avancé l’idée d’une alternance entre les deux villes : à Lyon les assemblées plénières, à Clermont les commissions permanentes. Le mauvais exemple de l’Europe à cheval entre Bruxelles et Strasbourg étant passé par là, toutes les assemblées se tiendraient à Lyon, avait finalement tranché l’ancienne majorité."

  • New expansion, long and within policy, with no plagiarism. QPQ done. Hook is interesting and the source provided on this page verifies it, however: there is no reference for that fact in the article, where the info about Queyranne and two capitals currently carries no citation. Update: I duplicated the reference myself, good to go. Dahn (talk) 07:53, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
