Local Government Association (LGA) Waste Services Peer Challenge Report
About the publication
The Council invited a Local Government Association / Association for Public Service Excellence (LGA/APSE) Peer Review team in to evaluate Waste Services in March 2024.
The peer review was not an inspection and was a constructive exercise intended to complement the ongoing dialogue with Trade Unions, management and the workforce and provide an understanding for all parties on how other councils operate and share best practice, designed to complement and add value to a council's own performance and improvement focus.
The peers used their experience and knowledge of local government to reflect on the information presented to them by people they met, things they saw and material that they read.
The peer team spoke to around 50 people including a range of council staff and Members. An action plan has been developed involving all stakeholders to include key issues that are being addressed, including:
- Round rebalancing
- Replacement of vehicle strategy
- PPE
- CCTV policies
The peer team found a committed workforce across all areas of the service. The findings of the LGA/APSE Peer review have been shared with all parties and the full report is available below.
