Plans to integrate culture into economic planning in West Yorkshire are being promoted by the Leeds City Region Enterprise Partnership (LEP).

The partnership's blueprint for the region involves embedding cultural considerations "within all place based work and place planning", developing the creative sector, increasing employment in arts and culture and encouraging "a growth in audiences and participants of all cultural activity".

A "vision" document says the LEP will work closely with West Yorkshire Combined Authority to deliver against that framework to give residents and visitors "a better quality of life".
