The Local Government Association (LGA) has launched a new framework to support councils as they digitalise.

The LGA said the framework would help local authorities use the latest technology to solve challenges facing their communities.

It hopes to create ‘digitally enabled councils, digitally empowered residents, and digitally equipped places’.

The deputy chair of the LGA’s improvement and innovation board, Alex Coley, said: ‘The LGA’s framework for securing the digital future of local government sets a clear direction for a long and complex journey.

‘We know the rewards of digitalisation can be immense but depend on the sector’s ability to shape its own destiny and navigate the digital landscape as an active participant.

‘These missions are a declaration of intent and a tangible commitment to taking bold collective action on digitalisation to deliver services more efficiently, engage more effectively and create thriving communities well-equipped for the 21st century.’
