As far as I can tell, in combination with it's big brother 'Big Society' it seems to be a cunning plan to reduce the workload on local and national bodies by devolving decisions from elected persons (and their advisors) to those members of the public with the time and inclination to get involved. I'm not clear what the real benefit of this is as I don't see a corresponding reduction in the amount of national and local taxation being levied.
Oh, silly me, we'll need the dosh to pay for all the people who will be made redundant.
