Localism Act
Community Right to Challenge
The Community Right to Challenge was introduced by Government
through the Localism Act 2011.
The Community Right to Challenge allows certain ‘relevant
bodies’ (see the Communities and Local Government Guidance for
further details) the right to submit an Expression of Interest to
run a Council service or part of a Council service.
The Council must consider the ‘expression of interest’ and
accept it, accept it with modifications or reject it on the grounds
specified in the legislation (see the Communities and Local
Government Guidance).
If you have any queries on the process then please do not hesitate
to contact the Council’s Procurement Team on 01909 533449 or 01909
533256. A full Q & A on the Community Right to Challenge is
listed below.
