Voluntary & Community Sector – recommendations

The LCC is delighted to publish the 5th and final recommendations paper for consultation, addressing the role of the Voluntary and Community sectors in London.

It’s publication is timed to coincide with the election of the new Mayor of London – Sadiq Khan – with whom the London Communities Commission Chair, Sir Stephen O’Brien, met during the election campaign.  The Mayor was sympathetic to the case for investing in London’s worst-hit communities and we recommend the findings of the London Communities Commission to the new Mayor.

Draft Recommendations Papers for consultation

Hot on the heels of the publication of our first paper – the recommendations for the London Mayoral Candidates, (see below), the London Communities Commission is publishing a further three papers in draft for consultation.  These are:

LCC Paper 2 Draft Recommendations for Action with LONDON BOROUGHS

LCC Paper 3 Evidence and Draft Recommendations for Action with the BUSINESS SECTOR

LCC Paper 4 Draft Recommendations for Action by COMMISSIONERS OF PUBLIC SERVICES

A fifth paper with recommendations for the Voluntary and Community Sector will follow.
