LOCAL GOVERNMENT REORGANISATION

Do you have the evidence needed to make confident LGR decisions?

Before successor authorities redesign services, they need to understand what they are inheriting.

‍Local Government Reorganisation will redraw boundaries, governance structures and organisations. It will not redraw the needs, demand pressures and service challenges successor authorities inherit.

This short 3-minute assessment is designed to help SEND and Adult Social Care leaders identify where visibility already exists — and where additional evidence may be needed before future decisions are made.

How to use this assessment

Answer each question based on what your authority can evidence today, using the four-point confidence scale.

Confidently — we can evidence this today.
Mostly — good visibility, with minor gaps.
Partially — some visibility, but real gaps, assumptions or differences between predecessor authorities.
Not yet — little or no visibility; we would need additional analysis or evidence.

It can be completed in just a few minutes. There is no pass mark. The purpose is to help you identify where more visibility may be needed before future service decisions are made.
