Views sought on future of local government

Council leaders and chief executives are being invited to share their views about what is needed in local areas, to help inform the LGA’s work on a Local Government White Paper.

The LGA is developing a plan for the first King’s Speech after the coming General Election, aimed at securing a national-local partnership – a new local deal – in which local government can work to its full potential for local people, places and the planet. The white paper – from local government, and for local government and communities – will present a clear vision for the future of the sector, based on the priorities of the public, councils and local communities.  

It will be underpinned by the LGA’s Make It Local campaign and published before the next election.

As part of the ongoing work to develop effective proposals that help local communities, the LGA wants to hear from council leaders and chief executives about what is needed in local areas, their priorities and the key changes the sector needs for the future. 

They can share their feedback by completing a short online survey. This closes on Friday 15 December.
