This Framework has established a common approach to how the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC) will and has assured the funds in scope and describes the accountability in line with each fund’s delivery model. The assurance cycle provides confidence to the DLUHC Accounting Officer and the Senior Responsible Officer for each fund.

In addition to the assurance, the performance management approach for Town Deals and FHSF is set out in this Framework in the Towns Fund section, providing details of the process and expectations for local authorities as grant recipients and as Accountable Bodies for Town Deals.
