West Midlands Councils

West Midlands Councils is a regional grouping of the Local Government Association.

It was established as the Local Authority Leaders’ Board for the West Midlands region of England. It assumed the functions previously carried out by the West Midlands Regional Assembly when that body was abolished in March 2010. ^[1] The body was initially known as the West Midlands Leaders Board, changing its identity in July 2010, following abolition of regional spatial strategies by the new UK administration. ^[2]
