In January 2025, the council undertook its latest Corporate Peer Challenge, led by the Local Government Association. The purpose of the Peer Challenge is to assess the council's performance and effectiveness across the five key themes of:
- Local priorities and outcomes
- Organisational and place leadership
- Governance and culture
- Financial planning and management
- Capacity for improvement
The report makes eight recommendations and returns a range of findings across each of the five themes. Over the coming weeks, we will prepare and publish our response to the Peer Challenge, including an action plan which will set out the council's response to each of the eight recommendations.
