Hear Sir Simon Milton and Hazel Blears address the NLGN Annual conference.

here. All you will need is a telephone and a PC with internet access.
Never has local devolution been more relevant, held more potential or required such detailed planning. But what does it mean in practice and what are the implications for local government?
NLGN’s 2008 Annual Conference, in partnership with LGC, will explore the major policy developments and their impact for the forthcoming year. We have brought together an unrivalled forum of Government Ministers and local government leaders, policy makers, executives and practitioners to evaluate the future for local devolution policies. Be informed of and prepare for key developments for the year ahead alongside those shaping the agenda.
Be aware of the latest thinking and get up to speed with a range of vital issues, including:
-
Making decisions at the right level – will more services actually be devolved?
-
Implications for devolved financial frameworks, post CSR
-
What will public service assessment look like under CAA?
-
How will partnerships be determined and driven through LAAs and LSPs?
-
Engaging communities and delivering representative, accountable leadership
Devolution of, for, by the people?
A range of presentations, discussions and seminars will provide you with the latest briefings on the devolution agenda and the opportunity to have your say. Understand the likely implications on local services and for pressing community issues including health, community safety and development planning.
