English devolution white paper: Public service reform
The English devolution white paper outlines ambitions to join up public services, hand mayors more influence over arms length bodies and give them a bigger role in other public services.
What does this mean for how public services will run in the future, will the proposals achieve what the government wants them to, and what is needed to make them work?
In this episode, LGC deputy editor Martin George is joined by Pam Smith, chief executive of Newcastle City Council and Jessica Studdert, chief executive of New Local.
