COSLA Manifesto
COSLA has recently published its Manifesto, which sets out what Local Government needs from Scottish Government to continue to serve local communities. COSLA’s key asks are grouped under six priority areas, divided into ‘enabling priorities’ focusing on key levers at local authorities’ disposal (finance, workforce and democratic powers) which enable delivery of key ‘outcomes-focused priorities’ (future generations, thriving places and thriving communities). The manifesto is available here.
