We are delighted to have been invited to provide evidence for this critically important review, particularly by considering how the experiences of other countries may be relevant to Wales.

💬 Dr Helen Tilley, WCPP’s Director of Policy and Practice (Welsh Government), said: “The thorough nature of the review is commensurate with the significant impact that the revised formula will have on the day-to-day lives of people across Wales, both directly through the provision of public services and more broadly through its influence on labour market participation and, in turn, the Welsh economy.”

[Welsh Government Housing and Local Government @WG_HousingLG]

We've started a review of the funding formula for local government in Wales taking into account factors like rural and remote locations, and changing population needs.
