FAILURE OF TRANSPARENCY IN LOCAL ENTERPRISE PARTNERSHIPS

That this House believes that Government plans to devolve crucial expenditure and development power to local enterprise partnerships is intrinsically flawed; agrees that while increased decentralisation towards local areas is welcome the process needs to be fully transparent; notes that the Sustainable Communities Act 2007 requires that the Government provides this through local annual spending reports so that informed decisions can be taken; and further believes that these decisions cannot properly be taken because the Government has failed to produce these local spending reports.
