The introduction of the Prudential Code has provided Local Authorities and Fire Authorities with far greater freedom of choice for funding and capital finance solutions.  

In addition Authorities face unprecedented challenges in the drive to obtain value for money. The Gershon review and the Lyons enquiry have also placed a greater emphasis on Asset Management and Asset Efficiency.
