Abstract: We show that for a locally compact group $G$, every completely bounded local derivation from the Fourier algebra $A(G)$ into a symmetric operator $A(G)$-module or the operator dual of an essential $A(G)$-bimodule is a derivation. Moreover, for amenable $G$ we show that the result is true for all operator $A(G)$-bimodules. In particular, we derive a new proof to a result of N. Spronk that $A(G)$ is always operator weakly amenable.
