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.
