Responsibility for the oversight and implementation of the Local Government Reorganisation process sits with MHCLG as the lead department. HM Treasury staff work broadly across a range of issues including local government and regional growth.

As such, it is challenging to calculate a precise assessment of resourcing focused on Local Government Reform.
