Answer
The Government believes that local places themselves should be empowered to deliver the right investments to support economic growth and regeneration in their communities. In England, Local Enterprise Partnerships have had crucial roles in administering all funding for local economic development and regeneration. The nature of economic development in the other three nations of the UK, however, is a matter for the devolved administrations.
