Our Regional
Director is Paul Pugh, who is supported by six Directors. Directors
each have responsibility for a specific area of Government policy, such as
housing, local government or community safety.
Government Offices are part of the Department for
Communities and Local Government, which covers regional and urban policy,
local government, planning, housing and regeneration. The Government
Office network website is now available at

Government Offices therefore function from the heart of Government. As
Government's eyes and ears in the region we communicate messages and ensure
an East of England input to the policy-making process at the centre. We
work with a range of regional and local bodies, including local
authorities, businesses, local education authorities, voluntary
organisations, the health service, and local people to help create
sustainable communities and to maximise competitiveness and prosperity in
the region.
