AnnotationThe Coalition government has chosen to raise high expectations amongst localists and has committed itself to 'the radical devolution of power and greater financial autonomy to local government'. This document makes the case for local budgets and why they are needed, not only to make savings but also to help build the Big Society, as well as offering choice and control over public service provision. Annexes provide a model of how a whole local budget might work along with the financial evidence for such a set-up. (RH).
