Partnerships Assurance Framework”, published in December 2014. Each Local Enterprise
Partnership has prepared its own local assurance framework verified by its accountable
local authority, setting out how it will operate and take decisions in a way which

basic standards around transparency and value for money are upheld. However it is
important that accountability for this rests with the Local Enterprise Partnership
and its accountable local authority.</p>
