LGR and devolution considerations in respect of local authority companies

in partnership with

In this webinar, we will be sharing our insights and experience of supporting local authorities going through local government reorganisation and being engaged in devolution (including the establishment of new strategic/combined authorities), with a particular focus on the impact on local authority companies: 

• The importance of planning to ensure a smooth transition for local authority companies on vesting day
• Key considerations in relation to interests and corporate relationships, including managing competing or duplicate corporate entities
• Practical mechanism for transferring company interest into new unitary authorities including the interface with Structural Changes Order and the statutory framework on LGR as well as local arrangements
• Managing the transition of functions to strategic (combined authorities) where there is an interface with local authority companies including those former LEP entities
