Urban Regeneration Companies: A Consultation Paper
7. Responding to this document
Views
Views on this document and on the potential for the greater use of innovative delivery vehicles such as URCs are sought and will be accepted from all interested organisations - either as single organisation responses or as local partnership responses (for example CPPs).
The key questions to consider when framing your response are:
Question 1 What are the current barriers or obstacles to delivering successful, sustainable regeneration? In what circumstances would an URC help address these problems? Question 2 Should URCs attract additional funds from central government and, if so, why? Question 3 What range of partner organisations is needed to form a successful delivery vehicle like an URC? Question 4 How should a delivery vehicle like an URC ensure that it is accountable both to its contributing partners and to the local community? Question 5 Are there circumstances in Scotland where the UDC approach would be appropriate? Question 6 How should an URC relate to other local partnerships and agencies? Question 7 Do you have specific proposals for an URC in your area? |
