Council budget: Targeting support to make things fairer
Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA) review
We commissioned the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA) in 2022 to do a review of the Council's financial management
They confirmed the organisation as having "adequate financial management capability."
The assessment places the Council with the majority of Councils that have done a similar review.
External challenge is part of 'Our Council's' new evidence-based way of working to measure successes and areas for growth.
The Council has made several planned investments and improvements based on an action plan agreed after the CIPFA review. This is to improve the financial management skills and abilities within the organisation.
