A range of resources designed to help councils deal with the impact of the recession have been pulled together by the Improvement and Development Agency (IDeA).
The resources include advice on assessing and responding to the recession in your area, research on the impact of the recession on councils, and economic development and employment case studies. Although produced for councils in England and Wales, they may be of interest to Scottish local authorities.You can access all the resources at http://www.idea.gov.uk/idk/core/page.do?pageId=9190749
