Insomniac’s Guide

Scottish Government’s review of local governance – aka Democracy Matters – is well underway with conversations taking place the length and breadth of the country. The backcloth to these discussions is, in part, how our current system of local government operates. At risk of curing the nation’s insomnia, some recommended reading for anyone with half an interest in a better understanding of local government is a recently published guide to local government finance. Or at least the first few pages entitled, All You Want To Know But Were Afraid To Ask. Beyond that point, sleep is assured.
