Towards a UK local government reform Act of 2015: improving public sector performance for 2025

Khan, N. and Kakabadse, N. K. (2013) Towards a UK local government reform Act of 2015: improving public sector performance for 2025. Governance Voice.

Item Type: Article
Abstract: This paper proposes a three tiered governance structure to rebalance local government within the United Kingdom. The introduction of a North of England assembly is proposed to rebalance the North / South divide. An international comparison of U.K. Australian and Canadian public sectors suggests that the U.K lags behind in competitiveness and wellbeing. Calling for equality for all citizens, the paper concludes that a shift in central government policy formulation is needed to enable equitable localisation of political power and improved global competitiveness of the U.K.
