+# FavourNestedFunctions (FL0082)
+
+*Introduced in `0.23.0`*
+
+## Cause
+
+Prefer using local (nested) functions over private module-level functions.
+
+## Rationale
+
+With a nested function, one can clearly see from reading the code that there is only one consumer of the function.
+The code being this way becomes more streamlined.
+Code is also more concise because nested functions don't need accessibility modifiers.
+
+## How To Fix
+
+Move private function inside function that uses it.
+
+## Rule Settings
