Are local freedoms at risk?

Ferry, L.

Abstract

As part of the ‘devolution revolution’ the UK central government devolved a general power of competence to English local authorities under the Localism Act 2011. In theory, local communities should have a greater say in the running of services as central government transfers control but, in reality, their power is being seriously diminished.
