In April 1996, a new local government system was established in Scotland. One of the many new developments is the acquisition by local authorities of a clear, statutory locus in economic development. This article describes the local government system, examines the recent history of economic development in Scotland, examines local government's role in economic development, discusses the importance of the new statutory power, and outlines possible directions for the development of local government's role in the economy
