Partnership

The mksm partnership aims to bring together the local, regional and national tiers of Government along with key infrastructure providers to plan the strategic delivery of sustainable growth across the area.

Formed in 2004, the partnership is a network of cross-regional working groups headed up by the Inter Regional Board which is chaired by a CLG Minister.

As a partnership, all our Boards and Groups are constituted on a voluntary basis and each individual partner organisation retains its own powers and responsibilities. The webpages in this section give a summary of these key groups.

The current partnership arrangements follow the results of a consultation which took place in summer 2008. Full details is in our publication mksm Governance and Partnership Structure (December 2008) available from the Publications section of this website.
