How We’re Governed
The organisation is governed by the Leader or elected Mayor of each of the 50 councils in the region and the full Assembly of Council Leaders meets twice a year. This is a forum for discussion on common issues but importantly provides a platform for all leaders to meet and debate key issues.
The Management Committee
Day to day management, including oversight of the Action Plan and Annual Budget, is provided by a Management Committee of five Leaders which meets on at least a quarterly basis. The Committee is supported by a series of Panels who have responsibility for delivering the Action Plan, linked to specific themes.
