Decision details

Following Dorset Councils initial corporate peer review by the LGA in autumn 2019, the council invited the peer review team back three years on to give them the opportunity to comment on progress that had been made or any areas that we need to look further. The team undertook a series of pre-meetings as well as a one-day site visit that generated the report from which we have taken a number of actions to take forwards and will report on delivery in line with the action plan once agreed.  

(a)           That the report from the Local Government Association (LGA) team be welcomed.

(b)           That the action plan, prepared in response to the findings set out in the LGA Peer Progress Review report (at appendix 2), be approved.

Reason for the decision

To ensure the Council acts on the LGA Peer Team’s recommendations.
