Details
On 10 May 2018, Tony McArdle and Brian Roberts were appointed by the Secretary of State as Commissioners using his powers in the Local Government Act 1999. Their appointment followed on from the Best Value Inspection by Max Caller which reported significant failings at the authority particularly centring on financial management and scrutiny and governance.
This report, by the Commissioners, follows on from the equivalent document covering the first year of the intervention and sets how they secured continuing progress at the authority.
