Best Value Survey |
In the November spending review, the Government announced a reduction in Local Government Central Grant of £6.1bn by 2019/20. Pressure will continue to grow for Local Authorities to make efficiency savings and achieve ‘best value’ for environmental services. But what is ‘best value’ and how do authorities make informed decisions about the delivery of waste and recycling services?
Ricardo Energy & Environment, in partnership with the Environmental Services Association (ESA) and supported by LARAC, is preparing a report on current trends in service delivery. We aim to gather data on the decision making process and choices that local authorities make when delivering an in-house or out-sourced service.
The survey is also an opportunity for Local Authorities with innovative solutions or successful delivery of either an in-house or out-sourced service to share their experiences. By participating in this short survey, you will be helping us to build up a picture of best practice in the industry. Anonymised results will be published in a report with case studies in early 2016.
