‘Very’ selective licensing – An exploration of English local authorities’ adoption of a discretionary landlord licensing scheme, 2006-2019
Since 2006 English Local Authorities (LA) have had discretionary powers to implement a type of landlord licensing scheme, Selective Licensing (SL), in the private rental sector. The scheme is intended to improve housing standards in areas marked by antisocial behaviour, poor housing conditions, low housing demand, and high levels of migration, deprivation, and crime. Yet up to 2019, only 15% of LA had adopted SL. We examine temporal, socio-econom…
Inequalities in school spending across local authorities in England
Investment in schools has wide‐ranging implications for society, from improving learning outcomes to economic growth and social cohesion. Addressing inequalities in school funding is important, as part of an effort to guarantee equal opportunities. However, little is known about the consequences of recent changes to school funding in England on school spending, including the introduction of the National Funding Formula (NFF) policy. We employed i…
Assessment and Qualitative Comparative Analysis of English Local Authority Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategies to Improve Health under Austerity Conditions, 2013–2017
Background . Local government is important for health equity because local policies often affect place‐based health, health equity, and their wider social determinants of health. In England, local governments must produce Joint Health and Wellbeing (JH&W) Strategies, outlining local strategies for health improvement. These strategies have been produced concurrently with budget cuts to local governments that are associated with adverse health and …
Implications of child poverty reduction targets for public health and health inequalities in England
Background We investigated the potential impacts of child poverty (CP) reduction scenarios on population health and health inequalities in England between 2024 and 2033. Methods We combined aggregate local authority-level data with published and newly created estimates on the association between CP and the rate per 100 000 of infant mortality, children (aged <16) looked after, child (aged <16) hospitalisations for nutritional anaemia and child (a…
The impact of housing insecurity on mental health, sleep and hypertension
Mental health impact of cuts to local government spending on cultural, environmental and planning services in England
Cuts to spending on cultural, environmental, planning and development services were associated with worsening population mental health in England. Impacts were driven by cuts to planning and development services in particular. Reinvesting in these services may contribute to improved public mental health
Inequalities in local government spending on cultural, environmental and planning services
Funding for cultural, environmental and planning services provided by local government in the UK has been cut dramatically over the last decade, with clear geographical inequalities. Local areas worst affected have been those with a higher baseline level of deprivation, those with a single-tier local government structure, and English rural local authorities. The inequalities in cuts to these services risk widening geographical inequalities in hea…
Impact of cuts to local authority spending on cultural, environmental and planning services on inequalities in childhood obesity in England
CEP spending levels may influence local childhood obesity risk, but the increasing prevalence and widening inequalities in obesity of the past decade seem to have been driven mainly by factors other than CEP spending cuts, that are also unevenly distributed across deprivation levels. The influence of specific services might be obscured by grouping CEP services for analysis
Funding for preventative Children’s Services and rates of children becoming looked after
Children in care face adverse health outcomes, throughout the life-course, relative to the general population. In England, over the last decade, the rate of children entering care has increased. The rate of change differs markedly for older and younger children, who may also experience different preventative services. These services have been subject to inequitable spending reductions due to fiscal policies trailing the 2008 recession. To assess …
Impact of cuts to local government spending on Sure Start children’s centres on childhood obesity in England
BACKGROUND: Childhood obesity is rising in disadvantaged areas in England. Sure Start children's centres provide community-based services for children <5 years and their parents, including many services that can support healthy weight, directly or indirectly. Since 2010, austerity-driven cuts to local authority (LA) budgets have led to substantially reduced public expenditure on Sure Start services. We assessed whether childhood obesity prevalenc…
How does vulnerability to Covid-19 vary between communities in England? Developing a Small Area Vulnerability Index (Savi)
BACKGROUND: During the initial wave of the COVID-19 epidemic in England, several population characteristics were associated with increased risk of mortality-including, age, ethnicity, income deprivation, care home residence and housing conditions. In order to target control measures and plan for future waves of the epidemic, public health agencies need to understand how these vulnerabilities are distributed across and clustered within communities…
Mapping the geodemographics of digital inequality in Great Britain
Geographic variation in digital inequality manifests as a result of a range of demographic, attitudinal, behavioural and locational factors. To better understand this multidimensional geography, our paper develops a new geodemographic classification for the spatial extent of Great Britain. In this model, we integrate a range of new small area measures that are drawn from multiple new forms of data including consumer purchasing data, survey and op…
