Strong and Prosperous Communities
On 26 October 2006, the Goverment published a white paper entitled Strong and Prosperous Communities - The Local Government White Paper.
The white paper is on the side of individuals and families who want to make a difference, both to their own lives and to the communities in which they live.
The vision is of revitalised local authorities, working with their partners, to reshape public services around the citizens and communities that use them.
This means changing the way local government works to give citizens and communities a bigger say; to enable local partners to respond more flexibly to local needs; to reduce the amount of top-down control from central government - and to enable citizens and communities to play their part.
