Who gives you extra?

...East Riding apparently, who scored top marks on Value for Money as assessed by the Audit Commission.


Three-quarters of single tier and county councils exceeded the Commission's minimum requirements for their use of resources overall, and all met the minimum requirements. Fifteen councils achieved the highest possible overall score and one council, East Riding of Yorkshire, achieved top scores in all five themes. There has been a general improvement across the five themes which make up the assessment, including internal control and financial management.

Congratulations to them and to all the other top scorers. East Riding submitted a case study to the Performance, Management, Measurement and Information project. Although it doesn't cover VFM in any detail, it does highlight some of their innovative and effective approaches to performance management.
