Strengthening local government transparency

We are consulting on proposals to change the way that local authorities record details of their land and property assets, and publish information about their procurement, their contracts and the delivery of some of their services.

We are also proposing to include new requirements about information on parking charges and enforcement and about the way transparency data is published and presented.

Finally, we are proposing to include recommendations that local authorities publish information about their dealings with small and medium-sized enterprises.
