About
Cornwall Council awarded a contract to Launceston Town Council for the devolution of the Launceston Library and Information Service, covered by a Service Contract and Service Specification.
Payments are expected to be drawn down by the end of the 2019/20 financial year to support the devolution process, and the service contract continues for 25 years.

A Contract Exemption was approved under PCR 2015, as the programme was mandated by Communities PAC and Cabinet to devolve the Statutory Library Service to a local stakeholder.
Local engagement and presentations ensured all local interests were consulted.
