Financing the Future of Local Government

Generating New Revenue Streams

Tuesday 30th September 2008
Inmarsat Conference Centre, London EC1

Keynote Address
John Healey MP
Minister for Local Government

Councils are performing better than ever before. Excellent CPA results have proved this. Government, however, is calling for local authorities to work ‘smarter’ to enable better services for the community.

Hearing from politicians, senior practitioners and stakeholders this unique MJ conference will provide the forum for delegates to consider the potential to raise new revenue streams in order to lead to service improvements.

Delegates will learn about new and innovative ideas from the most entrepreneurial councils as well the latest finance policy from central government. Presentations will showcase where local authorities have successfully generated income through a variety of vehicles including: joint ventures and charging and trading as well as potential income that can be generated through workplace parking levy, congestion charging and economic development measures. Constraints and barriers will be examined as well as strategies to overcome these.

This conference is a must to keep your council at the cutting edge of best practice, whilst developing new income streams to enable you to provide better services for your area.
