The Liverpool Business Partnership
The Liverpool Business Partnership was launched in May 1998. It brings together local businesses and regulatory services.
The aim of the partnership is to make it easier for businesses to understand and comply with the regulations that affect them.
As more and more businesses have access to the World Wide Web, we are making as much information as possible accessible via the internet.
From here, you will find links to many of the organisations involved in the partnership. There is also information about what they do and how they work.
