Summary

On 20 May 2009 the House of Commons Communities and Local Government Select Committee published its Balance of Power: Central and Local Government report which considered the current and future role of Central Government in relation to Local Government.

The Government published its response to that report in September 2009. However, in response to several of the recommendations, an interim response was provided pending the outcome of the Strengthening Local Democracy consultation exercise, which was launched on 21 July 2009. This approach was agreed with the Committee Chair.

This document therefore provides a final response to the Select Committee in respect of recommendations 2, 4, 5, 6, 26 and 28.
