Local government reorganisation: What does it mean for procurement and contracts?

Event

Event summary

This event has been developed to support practitioners who are supporting their organisation through local government reorganisation. The government's ambitious plans set out in the English Devolution White Paper, represents the biggest proposed change to local government since the Local Government Act 1974. LGR’s main objective is to deliver greater efficiencies, and to prioritise the delivery of high quality and sustainable public services to citizens. Council procurement, commissioning and contracting teams will therefore play a central part in supporting LGR, but do you know what role you can play in the LGR plans?
