Introduction to the Economic Assessment 1.2 The Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Act 2009 places a duty on county councils and unitary district councils to prepare an assessment of the economic conditions of their area. This new duty comes into force on 1st April 2010, at which point local authorities must begin to prepare their assessments. The purpose of the Economic Assessment (EA) is to provide a robust evidence base that will underpin strategic planning, investment decisions and delivery plans. 1.3 The Leicester and Leicestershire Leadership Board made a decision to develop a sub-regional EA in 2009, in advance of the statutory requirement. It was also agreed that a single EA be developed to cover Leicester City and Leicestershire County. 1.4 A dedicated EA project team has gathered, analysed and interpreted a vast amount of evidence over the past few months. This has come from a wide range of sources including national statistics, local statistics and bespoke research studies undertaken within the sub- region.
