As a condition of the 2024 to 25 Local Government Finance Settlement, all local authorities are required by Government to publish productivity plans by 19 July 2024.

The plans cover a number of themes, including:

• how we have transformed the way we design and deliver services and what more we intend to do to make better use of resources
• how we plan to take advantage of technology and make better use of data to improve decision making, service design and use of resources
• our plans to reduce wasteful spend within our organisation and systems
• barriers to productivity and what government, or the market, could do to help

The council’s plan, which was endorsed by Full Council on 17 July 2024 is available below:
