Local Area Agreements
In light of the change in Government, it is unlikely that Local Area Agreements (LAAs) will continue.
It is already clear, alongside wholesale and in-year cuts to Area Based Grants, that the Department for Communities and Local Government has cut the reward grant (£125m) for the current round of LAAs.
Also affected
- Comprehensive Area Assessment process
- Public Service Agreements (the Central Government framework for the national indicator set)
