The document summarizes a presentation on the London Borough of Hackney's involvement in the Delegated Delivery Pilot program. [1] The pilot program aims to give boroughs greater control over affordable housing delivery through multi-year contracts in exchange for higher delivery targets. [2] Hackney was selected based on its strong track record of housing delivery and innovative approach. [3] An initial challenge is redeveloping the Colville estate, which requires substantial funding for vacant possession but could double housing densities.

Single Conversation Replaces previous multiple conversations Main business process for the HCA Focus on places delivering local priorities Joint approach with local authorities and partners Comprehensive coverage of housing and regeneration
Progress c160 Single Conversation areas Conversations started in 157 24 LIPs agreed Some delayed by election Independent Interim Evaluation
Interim evaluation - purpose Provide feedback from local authorities and partners on the process Provide an overview of how the model is being applied in different regions and circumstances Identify barriers and challenges in implementation Provide early evidence of the benefits achieved to date, and further benefits that could be realised Inform further implementation of the business model Inform our Spending Review discussions with CLG / HMT
Good progress Strong support from local authorities and partners Consistent with wider direction of travel for public policy Already influencing investment decisions on current programmes Local Investment Plans (LIPs) effectively support local authorities strategies Initial focus on housing and regeneration; expected to develop into comprehensive approach to place shaping
Benefits Harnessing HCA & other resources for communities and places Place focus brings coherence of partners for efficiencies Long term public investment management can help leverage Overall strategic approach increases performance and impact
Challenges Inherited programmes, flexibilities, uncertainties Balance of national and local priorities Guidance and information interpretation flexibility inconsistency Capacity and track record - progress is faster with strategic partnerships eg MAAs Milestones for starts exceeded, but no target date for completing all LIPs
Recommendations More consistency More certainty in funding and flexibility Encourage sub-regional partnerships / two tier approach Encourage LAs to bring in delivery partners earlier Refresh definition as holistic Clarify appraisals of LIPs Peer assessment
Responding to the reflections Define core elements for LIPs for more consistency while keeping local flexibility Internal peer assurance of early LIPs for appraisal and sharing good practice Aim to complete Local Investment Plans by March 2011.
Core elements Economic Growth Community Outputs and engagement outcomes Core Elements Prioritisation using an Statutory duties Appraisal based approach Housing Supply
Spending review framework Is the activity essential to meet Govt priorities? Does the Govt need to fund this activity? Does the activity provide substantial economic value? Can the activity be targeted to those most in need? How can the activity be provided at lower cost? How can the activity be provided more effectively? Can the activity be provided by a non-state provider to the citizens, wholly or in partnership? Can non-state providers be paid to carry out the activity according to the results they achieve? Can local bodies as opposed to central government provide the activity?
Next Publish interim evaluation Implement core elements and peer assurance process Continue to deliver localist approach, but have an eye for Spending Review
