DELIVERING GOOD GOVERNANCE IN LOCAL GOVERNMENT
each local authority operates through a governance framework. it is an interrelated system that brings together an underlying set of legislative requirements, governance principles and management processes. Traditionally, local government has conformed in whole or in part and in many different ways to the principles of good governance and has had a sound base on which to build. There has been a strong regulatory framework in existence and robust arrangements for monitoring and review.

The Framework recommended that local authorities review their existing governance arrangements against a number of key principles and report annually on their effectiveness in practice. Through the development of this Framework authorities were encouraged to meet the standards of the best.
