Devolution
•Why bother??!!
• Gives greater local ‘say’ and ‘ownership’• Local prioritisation• Can remove some of the tiers (and sometime tears!!)
that prevents making things happen• Challenging budget climate putting pressure on
service delivery / standards• Strengthens local partnership working / local
resilience / sense of purpose• Local knowledge of often translates into a better
solution in an area

So what has been achieved so far?
• Close to 40 projects completed (from small scale to larger scale)
• About the same number under development right now
• Some services retained that might otherwise not be offered locally e.g. toilets
• Better relationships (hopefully!!) between councils
• Progress made in relation to Freehold and Leasehold debate…..
• Changing attitude and culture….
