The Local Government and Elections (Wales) Act 2021 (‘the 2021 Act’) provided for the establishment of Corporate Joint Committees as a vehicle to support regional collaboration between local authorities in Wales.
Section 31 of the Local Government Act 2003 (‘the 2003 Act’) allows Welsh Ministers to pay a grant to a ‘local authority in Wales’. The definition of which bodies are a local authority for the purposes of that section is set out in section 33. The list does not include CJCs, and Welsh Ministers are therefore unable to provide grant funding directly to CJCs using this local government specific legislation.
