To help London boroughs deliver more for Londoners, we need central government to do the following:

 

To improve Londoners’ health and social care:
Make PCTs’ non-acute care budgets accountable to the London borough in which they operate, to allow boroughs to direct those budgets to local need and integrate health and other care services with NHS spending.

 

To get more Londoners working:

  • Co-ordinate the funding streams of national back-to-work schemes and make them accountable to London boroughs collaborating through a joint board across the economic sub-regions of London
  • Introduce flexibility in the management of benefits to help reduce disincentives to work.

 

To boost adult skills:
Devolve London’s regional SFA and funding to the London boroughs with the LSEB, freeing resources and allowing boroughs to develop schemes tailored to the specific needs of their residents.
