New development: Accountability in public partnerships—The case of Local Strategic Partnerships

George Jones and John Stewart

Public Money & Management, 2009, vol. 29, issue 1, 59-64

Abstract: Present arrangements for the accountability of Local Strategic Partnerships (LSPs) and Local Area Agreements (LAAs) are confused. While only local authorities have a direct accountability to the electorate for them, yet they lack powers over their public partners to make that accountability genuine. These partners should be obliged to follow the lead of the local authority.
