This dataset contains a list of services provided by local councils (‘local authorities’) and links to the corresponding pages on local council websites. It’s maintained and owned by the Government Digital Service (GDS).
The dataset covers England and Wales and contains some data for Scotland. It will cover Northern Ireland in the future.
GOV.UK uses the links to direct users to [local council services](http://standards.esd.org.uk/?uri=list%2FenglishAndWelshServices&tab=details), for example [pay your council tax](https://www.gov.uk/pay-council-tax).
It replaces the dataset that was previously available on Local Directgov.
This dataset is updated daily.
