Book excerpt: The Government set out its policy on regional governance in the White Paper (Cm 5511, ISBN 0101551126) published in May 2002, as part of its overall agenda of constitutional reform and devolution. This draft Regional Assemblies Bill (together with explanatory notes on the Bill and a regulatory impact assessment) is in 13 parts and includes provisions relating to the establishment, constitution, structure, role, powers, financing, accountability and monitoring of elected regional assemblies in England, as well as other functional responsibilities such as spatial planning, housing and transport. The draft Bill is accompanied by a policy statement, issued by the ODPM, which summarises the Governments policy objectives and sets out how it intends that policy to be reflected in legislation. The statement identifies policy developments since the 2002 White Paper and indicates the main issues on which further proposals are still being developed. It also provides information on aspects not included in the draft Bill but which the Government intends to address in any subsequent Bill.

ODPM: Housing, Planning, Local Government and the Regions Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2005 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Committee's report was originally intended to improve the draft Regional Assemblies Bill (Cm 6285, ISBN 0101628528) published in July 2004. Although the draft Bill is now unlikely to proceed through Parliament in the near future, the report identifies key points which the Government should consider if, in the light of the result of the referendum in the North East in November 2004, it decides it wishes to return to the issue of introducing elected regional assemblies. The report discusses a range of issues including: the powers and resources of regional assemblies; their relations with local and central government; policy areas such as economic performance, skills development, transport and housing; funding aspects; constitutional and electoral issues, including the voting system used; and stakeholder participation. The Committee concludes that any future legislation needs to be more ambitious than the draft Bill to create regional bodies that are fit for their purpose.

Download or read book Public Affairs for Journalists written by James Morrison and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2009 with total page 716 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public Affairs for Journalists is a punchy and practical introduction to all aspects of central and local government. It provides journalism students with all the information they will need to cover public affairs confidently. The text starts with the emergence of Britain's constitution, the changing role of the monarchy and the origins of parliamentary democracy. It goes on to explore the roles of individual departments of state, such as the Treasury, and recent moves away from 'big government' towards more commercially driven forms of public service delivery. It also looks at Britain's position in the world with chapters on the EU and IR. The second half of the book examines the evolution of the present-day council framework. It explores the complexities of local government finance and explores the roles of elected councilors, emergency services and individual departments. The book concludes by looking at the Freedom of Information Act. Public Affairs for Journalists is accompanied by an Online Resource Centre.
