Productivity plan
In early 2024, the local government finance settlement announced that all councils would be asked to produce productivity plans. Councils were advised that the plans should be published online by 19 July 2024, and that they should cover the following 4 themes:
- How have you transformed the way you design and deliver services to make the best use of resources?
- How do you plan to take advantage of technology and make better use of data to improve decision making, service design and the use of resources?
- What are your plans to reduce wasteful spend within your organisation and systems?
- What are the barriers that prevent progress that government can help to reduce or remove?
You can find the full plan on our productivity plan document page.
