Public Value Reviews

Public Value Review programme

Our programme of public value reviews helps to ensure that our resources are focused on delivering what Surrey residents and communities find most valuable.

All of our reviews share a primary objective, which is to deliver improved outcomes and value for money for residents. The outcomes are expected to be services that place us in the top 25% of local authorities for performance and the lowest 25% for unit costs.

In his report to Cabinet in June 2009, Council Leader Andrew Povey commented, "we are determined to ensure that Council services provide maximum value for money and, with this in mind, we will conduct a public value review of all services that will take place over the next three years. Within 100 days we will have started this review commencing in Adult Social Care."

As part of its consideration of the paper Leading the way: changing the way we do business, the Cabinet agreed the programme should begin in July 2009.

The achievements of the first year of the review programme are summarised in a report to Cabinet, and our approach has been cited as an example of best practice in the County Councils Network (CCN) Beacon publication.
