Active Communities in the Regions
There are nine Government Offices (GOs) of the Regions

policies and programmes on behalf of the following ten
departments:
The Regional Co-ordination Unit (RCU),is an inter-departmental
unit located in the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister

- provide a high quality service by combining skills
in the GOs at the local level with the co-ordination
role of the RCU in influencing policy design and implementation
in Whitehall.
