Take the Room 151 survey on the impact of the PWLB rate rise

  • — 17 Oct, 2019

Room 151 is seeking your views on how the announcement of a 1% increase in the rate of borrowing from the Public Works Loan Board will affect your council.

Take the 5 minute survey (LA finance officers only)

The Treasury’s announcement sent shockwaves through the local authority sector, with warnings that it could add pressure to budgets and impact on housing, regeneration and other projects.

Now, Room 151 wants to find out what action the sector is likely to take in response to the new landscape for capital finance.

We want to hear your views – the survey is open to all senior finance officers working in local authorities.

In the past, government officials have cited the results of Room151 surveys as a factor in their decision-making – making your views heard can help change policy.

Click here to take the survey, which will take five minutes to complete.
