Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEPs) are business led partnerships between Local Authorities and local private sector businesses. There are currently 38 across England. | |||
They play a central role in determining local economic priorities and undertaking activities to drive economic growth and job creation, improve infrastructure and raise workforce skills within the local area. LEP boards are led by a business Chair and board members are local leaders of industry (including SMEs), educational institutions and the public sector.<ref name="LEP">https://www.lepnetwork.net/about-leps/location-map/</ref> | |||
The Strengthened Local Enterprise Partnerships Review by the [[Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government]] published in 2018 set out the enhanced role of LEPs in driving local growth and how government and LEPs will work together to strengthen leadership and capability, improve accountability and manage risk. It also sought to ensure that all businesses and communities are represented by one LEP. | |||
