<p>My department works closely with the Department for Education and partners across
the country to ensure local authorities have the right tools and approaches to deliver
high quality children’s services. The Devolution and Local Recovery White Paper will
set out government’s place-based regional economic strategy to move us from recovery
into levelling up. <br> <br> Where any devolution involves proposals for local government
restructuring, these should be locally led by those who best know the area; and any
such proposals would need to demonstrate that the services to be delivered by new
organisations, including children’s services where appropriate, would be improved.</p>
