Column 920
inform itself about the needs of rural areas nationally and locally. It draws on published research and data from a wide variety of sources and where necessary commissions its own research or surveys to fill gaps in knowledge or data. It also liaises with a broad range of organisations involved in economic and social development, including local authorities, training and enterprise councils, rural community councils, ACRE and the National Council for Voluntary Organisations. In its priority areas the commission works in partnership with the rural development programme committees, which assess the economic and social needs of the areas concerned and develop a programme of action to tackle the problems identified. All these partnerships provide a valuable source of information on the needs of rural areas.The commission also funds some demonstration projects designed to improve information on rural needs and issues, and test out solutions to rural problems.
