July 2008
Welcome to the July issue of LGM online – ILM’s monthly e-magazine especially for members of the Faculty of Local Government Managers. It’s full of topical news and features specially selected for you – but now, instead of quarterly, you’ll receive it every month, so you can keep up-to-date with all the latest developments in local government.
This month, we assess the LGA’s radical proposals to give councils greater control over the police forces they increasingly pay for, and ask whether councils should be using controversial spying laws to snoop on local litter louts and disobedient dog owners. Plus, read the latest news from the world of local government in our dedicated news area.
Remember, LGM online is exclusively for members of ILM’s Faculty of Local Government Managers, so have your username and password handy.
