Sharing services among small councils some examples

NALC SMALLER COUNCILS COMMITTEE 21 April 2015

The committee has an item about shared services; case studies of existing examples are available via the link below but BALC would be interested to hear what you are doing in Berkshire to share/commission/tender jointly for services.

  • To publish and promote the examples of shared services already collected;
  • To identify other examples and promote them;T
  • o look at areas for joint working between smaller councils e.g. sharing services, joint procurement, shared clerks etc.;
  • To "future scenario" the role of smaller councils within new governance in the UK e.g. move to larger unitary principal councils and devolution/ regionalism.

Update:

Examples of shared services has been published on the NALC website and received some publicity. http://www.nalc.gov.uk/library/news-stories/1500-item3examplesandcasestudiesonsharedservices/file
