Guidance: The Future of Town Deal Boards
The Town Deal Boards: Supplementary Guidance document sets out DLUHC’s expectations for Town Deal Boards as places move into the delivery of Town Deal projects. Please note this guidance is supplementary to existing guidance, and sets out DLUHC’s expectations regarding the Board’s specific role in:
Performance reviews
Project Adjustment Requests
Assurance activity
It also reiterates the key strategic and consultative role of the Town Deal Board. As per the Levelling Up Funds Local Authority Assurance Framework (September 2022), checks will be carried out annually on publicly available records to review whether each Town Deal Board is working in line with its governance. This governance includes the information provision requirements set out in the original prospectus and all subsequent guidance including this supplementary guidance.
