To confirm the Council’s intention of seeking an LGA peer review in 2022.

Cabinet welcomed the Council’s intention of seeking an LGA peer review in 2022. It had been more than seven years since Broxtowe had a peer challenge. A peer challenge was a sector-led improvement offer to Local Authorities managed through the Local Government Association. The purpose of the review was to generate external perspectives and insights to inform a future improvement journey.

RESOLVED that an LGA peer review be commissioned during late November/early December 2022.

Reason

A Corporate Peer challenge offered a tried and tested method of improvement and provided Councils with a robust and effective improvement tool. They also provided a critical friend and practitioner perspective as part of the process.
