Devolution: our offer of support

Devolution is fundamentally changing the way local decisions are made and how public services are funded. It provides greater freedoms and flexibilities at a local level, resulting in more effective, better targeted public services, greater growth and stronger partnerships between public, private and community leaders.

The LGA believes, it is councils, not Westminster, that are best placed to ensure positive outcomes for people in England. Therefore, helping councils to secure the benefits of devolution for their residents is one of the LGA's top priorities.
