Description

This project will contribute to the LGA's Public Service Reform and Innovation Policy Committee Priority Goals for 2026/27 by helping make meaningful progress towards a devolution agreement that brings powers closer to councils and communities. It will do this by developing practical principles for collaboration between local and strategic authorities, helping Government deliver its devolution ambitions while maximising the outcomes for people and places. This project aims to help shape emerging quickly following on the back of the Rewiring the State Delivery Plan, setting out an approach that helps local and strategic authorities collaborate in delivering Government’s new ambition for places. The challenge is not eliminating overlaps in responsibility but creating effective ways of working across them. It is likely that the Delivery Plan will be published shortly before this project commences, and so a first step would be to review what is published, and how this project can add greatest value. We would like the project to progress on timeframes set out in this RFQ, whether or not the Delivery Plan is published before this project commences
