Central and Local (Government) Information Partnership (CLIP)

CLIP Transport Statistics (CLIP-TS) is a sub-group of the Central and Local (Government) Information Partnership (CLIP), the main forum for discussion between central and local government on statistical matters.

Its formal terms of reference are:

1. To act as a conduit for wider dissemination of transport statistics which are of particular interest to Local Authorities;
2. To discuss transport statistics of interest to either side that are not dealt with by other topic specific groups. In particular:
3. • Monitoring of transport and related plans;
   • Sub-national statistics (including neighbourhood statistics);
3. To identify gaps in coverage and investigate methods of filling these;
4. To investigate methods of using local authority data to satisfy local, regional and national needs.

The membership of CLIP-TS includes representatives from the Local Government Association, Association of London Government, Passenger Transport Authorities, Shire Counties, Transport for London, Government Offices and the Department for Transport.

The planned work of the group, together with minutes of meetings and useful background papers can be viewed on the group's website.
