Did you know we have a dedicated powers and duties tool?
Available to LG Inform Plus subscribers, it provides information on what current legislation gives English and Welsh councils the power to do and what it requires them to do in law. Advanced searching and filtering options make it easy to find specific powers and duties based on legislation, business function and keyword, and results are easily exported in commonly used formats.

'Local area' was defined at the start of the survey as 'the area within 15-20 minutes walking distance from your home'.
This metric shows the percentage of residents who answered that people using or dealing drugs is 'a fairly big problem' (as a percentage of all respondents apart from those who answered 'don't know/no opinion'), for surveys carried out as a postal and/or online survey.
