Unlocking the talent of our communities
The Empowerment White Paper, to be published in the summer, will set out
how the untapped talent of communities can be unleashed to ensure
everyone has a greater say in improvements to public services, local
accountability and opportunities for enterprise. The Government has
published a
consultation document which seeks views on a number of issues,
including ways to: improve deprived areas; encourage active citizenship;
improve local public services by involving local users; and strengthen
local accountability. There is also an
online discussion forum (open until 10 April).
