Decision Maker: Cabinet

Outcome: Recommendations Approved

Is Key Decision?: No

Is Callable In?: No

Date of Decision: January 27, 2026

Purpose: To consider the report of the Leader of the Council detailing LGA Corporate Peer Challenge Progress Review report. 

Content: To note the LGA Corporate Peer Challenge progress review report set out at Appendix 1 of the report.

Reasons for the decision: The Local Government Association Corporate Peer Challenge process requires that the CPC progress review report is published by the Council.

Alternative options considered: The council is required to publish the CPC progress review report. Whilst it is not a requirement to present these at a Cabinet meeting, the option of publishing the CPC progress review report on the Council’s website without Cabinet consideration was rejected as it does not provide the same level of transparency and opportunity for learning from the CPC process.
