Abstract
Presents a guide for Local Authorities on improving provision of public conveniences. Reviews the evidence and sets out ways in which local authorities and their partners can secure improvements for public toilets. It does not seek to promote public toilets above all other local services but, by arguing the case for public toilets, removing barriers to provision, improving accessibility and sharing good approaches and practice, aims to encourage local authorities and the business community to review the importance of provision.
