CPA is the framework that Councils are judged by. It is a process
of independent inspection by the national Audit Commission, who
undertake an annual inspection on the performance and proven
corporate capacity of every Council in England.
As well as looking at how well the Council delivers their services,
it also considers how the Council is run as this will impact on how
well they deliver their services in the future.
Following the most recent inspection we were rated as a council
that is improving well and
demonstrating 4 star overall performance. For
more information on this please read our:
Annual Audit and Inspection Letter
In
addition to CPA we also receive an annual report from our
external auditors, which highlights good practice and areas for
improvement. It looks at financial standing, systems of internal
financial control, standards of financial conduct, legality of
transactions, use of resources, performance information and our
Best Value Performance Plan.
