South East England Councils (SEEC) is a voluntary association of council leaders from the 74 local authorities in the South East region of England.[1] It is a regional grouping of the Local Government Association. It was established following the abolition of the South East England Regional Assembly in March 2009. From April 2009 to 2010 it had a statutory role in regional planning.
