The search for good savings with Martin Reeves, Mark Smith, and Ebony Hughes from Impower
Continually looking for savings and efficiencies in the quest to balance the books has become a way of life for local authorities. But striking the balance between achieving savings in the short term without storing up more problems for the future is challenging and can require political and managerial bravery.
In this episode of The Local Authority LGC, in association with Impower, explores what good savings look like and how councils can deliver more of them.
LGC editor Sarah Calkin is joined by:
Martin Reeves, chief executive, Oxfordshire CC
Mark Smith, director of public service reform, Gateshead MBC
Ebony Hughes, chief operating officer, Impower
