UK's "levelling up" policy faces delays and lacks long-term impact measurement, with local authorities spending only £1.24bn of £10.47bn promised by 2023.
The UK's "levelling up" policy, aimed at regional equality and economic growth in underdeveloped areas, has encountered significant delays and lacks a mechanism to measure its long-term impact, according to a public accounts committee report.
By September 2023, local authorities had spent only £1.24bn of the £10.47bn promised by the government.
The policy's delay could be attributed to a 27% reduction in local authorities' core spending power since 2010-11 due to reduced central government funding.
