Local authority leaders' boards are voluntary associations of council leaders that have been established in England following the abolition of the regional chambers established in 1998 by the Regional Development Agencies Act 1998. The establishment of the boards was part of the UK Government's ''Review of Sub-National Economic Development and Regeneration''.〔HM Treasury - (Review of sub-national economic development and regeneration )〕 which brought forward the Government's plans to alter the structure of regional governance in England and was mandated by the Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Act 2009.〔http://www.statutelaw.gov.uk/content.aspx?activeTextDocId=3631312 Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Act 2009〕 In June 2010, the new Conservative-LibDem coalition government announced plans to remove funding from the new boards and to remove their statutory functions. It was indicated that the boards might continue as voluntary associations of council leaders.〔(Scrapping regional bureaucracy will save millions - Newsroom - Communities and Local Government )〕 These changes did not affect the directly elected London Assembly, which was established by separate legislation as part of the Greater London Authority.〔http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts/acts1999/ukpga_19990029_en_1 Greater London Authority Act 1999〕 ==The local authority leaders' boards== The leaders' boards are: *East of England Local Government Association *East Midlands Councils *Association of North East Councils *North West Regional Leaders Board *South East England Councils *South West Councils *West Midlands Councils *Local Government Yorkshire and Humber (closed in March 2015) 〔http://www.lgyh.gov.uk/〕 Each leaders' board corresponds to a region of England. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「local authority leaders' board」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
