Purpose of the consultation
Terms of reference
The Local Government and Housing Committee is undertaking an inquiry into community assets, with specific focus on barriers and opportunities for communities to acquire built assets for community use. The Committee will explore how the statutory and policy framework encourages and supports the development of community assets for the benefit of communities. Issues to be considered include the following:
>>>>
>>>Whether the current statutory and policy framework empowers communities in Wales to develop community assets;
>>>The extent the Community Asset Transfer scheme promotes and supports effective development of community assets;
>>>To explore barriers and challenges faced by communities in taking ownership of public or privately owned assets, including finance and support services;
>>>To discover what lessons can be learnt from beyond the Welsh border.
<<<
