LGA business plan 2022–2025

The LGA Plan 2022-2025 was developed by a cross-party Task and Finish group commissioned by the LGA Board, with contributions from the nine policy/improvement boards. It was approved by the LGA Board in September 2023 and forms the basis of the work programmes for all our boards. 

The plan is reviewed and updated annually to reflect the latest priorities and commitments of the LGA’s political leadership, informed by the priorities of our membership.

In July 2023, the new Board of Directors of the LGA was elected. The Board continues to support the themes and commitments set out in the three-year plan but has highlighted four areas for particular focus over the coming year. 

1. A White Paper for Local Government – our manifesto for the next Government. 
2. Supporting Care Leavers – our commitment to those leaving care and with care experience.
3. Driving improvement and assurance – our improved sector-led improvement framework supporting councils to be the best. 
4. One LGA, One Voice – our organisational change programme, equipping us to be the best membership organisation we can be).

Running through all of these is our commitment to be the best membership organisation we can be – relevant, financially resilient and speaking out with authority on behalf of the sector that we represent.

The plan is divided into five parts:

Part 1 - about the LGA

Part 2 - promoting local government

Part 3 - improving local government

Part 4 - supporting local government

Part 5 - our business: how we work

The LGA is the national voice of local government. We’re on the side of councils: promoting their work, supporting them to improve and helping them make a difference to people, places and the planet. This is both our vision and the golden thread that runs throughout this three-year plan. 

We aim to be the best membership organisation we can be. As the national membership body for local authorities, we provide the bridge between central and local government and we help councils deliver the best services to their local communities. 

Our core members are English councils in full membership and Welsh councils in corporate membership through the Welsh LGA. Our Associate members include fire and rescue authorities (FRAs), fire, police and crime commissioners (FPCCs and PCCs), national parks authorities and town and parish councils through their membership body National Association of Local Councils (NALC). 

Over the period of this business plan, we intend to strengthen our representation of local government by working more closely with combined authorities and their elected mayors and with PCCs and PFCCs and their membership body, the Association of Police and Crime Commissioners.

We exist to promote, improve and support local government.

We are politically-led and cross-party and we work to give local government a strong, credible voice with national government and across the political parties. Supported by our team of experts covering every area of local government activity, we influence and set the political agenda on the issues that matter to our members so they can deliver local solutions to national problems. 

We know that priorities change and that we need to stay relevant to all our membership. We work across the breadth of local government, drawing in every tier of interest to promote and defend the reputation of the sector, focusing our efforts where we can have real impact. 

Our improvement programmes are sector-led and peer-based. Using expertise drawn from the sector, we build councils’ capacity to improve, so they can drive sustainable growth, deliver better public services and empower communities.

Parts 2 - 4 of this business plan set out our priorities to promote, improve and support local government. 

Delivering on our ambition to be the voice of local government demands an efficient, well-managed and financially resilient business and a reputation for delivering high quality and value for money. Our internal business priorities are set out in part 5 of this business plan.

• 79 per cent would speak positively about the LGA
• 76 per cent were satisfied with the work of the LGA
• 83 per cent agreed the LGA keeps members informed about its work
• 99 per cent of chief executives, 96 per cent of directors and 91 per cent of council leaders have said our improvement support has had positive impacts for their council
• 100 per cent of councils participating in a Corporate Peer Challenge said that the process had a positive impact.

Influencing government policy and shaping how that policy is delivered through partnership at local level is a central part of our work and a priority for our membership.  

Our offer to government reflects the key local leadership role played by councils and the technical expertise they bring in service delivery and more generally across social, economic and environmental themes. 

We draw on good relationships with ministers and officials but we also build alliances with a range of other stakeholders and, where useful, explain our positions through the media. The scope is very broad and prioritisation is critical to ensure that we are fully effective in our promotion of the sector.   

Our policy boards lead our policy work and are essential to the prioritisation process. The boards balance immediate policy challenges with forward thinking to keep local government at the forefront of policy development. 

Over the period of this plan, the main thrust of our work will centre on four themes:

• a sustainable financial future 
• stronger local economies, thriving local democracy
• putting people first
• championing climate change and local environments.

We will also continue to respond to unplanned immediate issues that impact on the sector such use of RAAC in schools, the COVID Inquiry and asylum pressures.

For 2023/24 we will give particular priority to: The White Paper for Local Government

In the run up to the general election, we are working actively to ensure that the next Government recognises the value of empowered local democracy. 

Our cross-party White Paper for Local Government sets out our ambition to secure a renewed national-local partnership capable of improving the lives of local residents.

The white paper includes:

• a programme of consultation across the sector
• a survey of all leaders and chief executives to collate the sector white paper priorities
• a survey of the public to understand what is important to them about the places they live
• engagement with key stakeholders to help shape our work
• production of a suite of policy papers to shape our lobbying approach
• engaging with the main political parties to land our messages on the white paper.

Supporting care leavers

Councils are corporate parents to children in care and care leavers. We want to ensure that those with experience of care are given the best start to their adult lives. Over the coming year, we will deliver a programme of activity to support our members in this important duty. 

This will include considering how the LGA as an employer can directly support those with care experience; ensuring councils have the resources, support and ideas to improve their offer for care leavers and bringing together partners to provide better support and opportunities for care leavers.

 We will: 

• ensure that the LGA as an employer is supporting those with care experience, including establishing an internship scheme and guaranteed interviews for care leavers 
• promote the work of the Care Leaver Covenant
• provide updated resource packs for councillors on corporate parenting and supporting care leavers, reflecting the voice of those with care experience
• showcase best practice from councils on their work to support care leavers and develop an evidence base of 'what good looks like' 
• lobby government on what councils need to improve support for care leavers in the long-term, including adequate resourcing for children’s social care and fully funded support for care leavers who were formerly unaccompanied asylum-seeking children
• continue providing advice, guidance and training for councillors and officers, through our improvement offer. 

Our campaigns

We will support all this work through our four priority campaigns:

• Debate not hate
• Make it Local
• Step Ahead
• White Paper – launching spring 2024.

Over the period of this business plan we will continue to develop new campaigns that match our priorities.

As the voice of local government, we support local government continuously to improve. One key way we achieve this is by making use of high quality and trained peers both members and officers who provide robust critical challenge to councils.

Our sector-led approach is underpinned by the core principles that local government is responsible for its own performance, is accountable locally not nationally and that the sector as a whole has a collective assurance responsibility.

Using local government expertise − peers in particular − to provide leadership, critical challenge and support, we help councils to improve, innovate, transform and deliver positive outcomes for their communities. We provide tools and resources that enable councils to respond to present and emerging challenges and ensure that they have in place the building blocks of what makes a good organisation – a clear vision and set of priorities, strong political and managerial leadership, clear and effective leadership of the place, robust financial planning and capacity to improve.

For 2023/24, we will give particular priority to: driving improvement and assurance

Leading the development of an improvement and assurance framework was one of the key recommendations of the LGA’s Corporate Peer Challenge. Work is underway and we are consulting with the sector and stakeholders about the creation of a framework and changes that need to be made to the current system of checks and balances.  This will also include providing clarity on the role of Oflog within such a framework including the relationship to the LGA’s sector led improvement approach. 

It is clear that more needs to be done to improve some of our key sector led improvement offers, building on the work over the last few years which has seen action plans and progress reviews added to our corporate peer challenge process and ensuring our peers, who are at the heart of our sector led improvement approach, continue to be the very best.   

Over the next 12 months we will:

• enhance the training and development of our peers; drive greater consistency in the way members and officers become peers including some form of accreditation and in our expectations of peers carrying out these roles
• strengthen our corporate peer challenge offer to make it more robust and consistent as well as continuing to improve our wider sector led improvement offers to maximise impact and continue to deliver value for money
• enhance our benchmarking tools so that councils continue to make even greater use of LG inform through the creation of an App amongst other things
• capture and share innovative and other practice by building on the successful Innovation Zone
• continue to improve our communication of sector led improvement, raising the profile, success, value for money and impact of our approach and giving our peers the tools to enable them to become advocates and champions. 
• ensure that key stakeholders, particularly government, recognise the value and impact of sector led improvement, the huge economies of scale it can bring and the importance of continuing to fund the programme. 

We will also continue to provide improvement support in the following areas:

Governance and finance 

Our improvement offer will continue to provide councils with tools to enhance governance and financial resilience, including through effective use of peers and data. It features:

• regional support and improvement programme - suite of options, including tailored and bespoke offers, peer challenge, post-election support

Partners in Care and Health 

The PCH team is delivering a range of contracts and direct awards to enable us to continue to support councils and their care and health partners to deliver high quality adult social care and public health. Subject to the outcome of the process, we aim to continue to prioritise: 

• delivering the Better Care Fund 
• improving commissioning, the fair cost of care and shaping the care market 
• recruitment and retention in the adult social care market

We offer additional expert technical and professional support that responds to a wide range of issues, challenges and opportunities outside our main improvement programmes. These include a comprehensive workforce offer, specialist legal and communications expertise, support to councils in their role as guardians of place and data and digital support.

Over the period of this business plan we will focus on the following key areas:

Support to the local government workforce

Recruiting and retaining good staff at all levels is central to excellent local services and a thriving local democracy. The impact on the workforce of continued high living costs, following years of restricted supply of key professions and reduced competitiveness with other employers, is an acute challenge. 

Our comprehensive workforce offer involves leadership of national collective bargaining, as well as supporting councils to address capacity and capability issues. We will:

• lead on national collective bargaining across councils, schools, fire and rescue authorities, police support staff and other related workforces
• provide comprehensive workforce support including workforce planning, officer-member relationships and HR/OD reform looking at organisational structures, pay frameworks and employee engagement
• provide specialist pensions support, including training courses for councillors and employers; as well as regulatory support from our team of expert advisers 
• promote national programmes that enhance and support the local government workforce and respond to significant skills shortages, including T Levels and apprenticeship support programmes.

Legal and governance support

The LGA has a proven track record of successful legal action on behalf the sector, costing councils a fraction of the cost and delivering significant benefits. We also provide expert governance support. We will:

• offer/commission specialist legal support on issues affecting a number of councils –current priority is the collective action on the trucks cartel and support on building safety
• contribute to public inquiries in support of the sector – our current priority is the COVID-19 Inquiry. 

Communications and events

Our communications expertise is a core benefit of LGA membership and the work of our communications teams increases our reach and ensures that our voice is heard both within and far beyond our sector. We will continue to offer:

• a comprehensive programme of free and paid for events - in-person, hybrid or virtual

Data and digital

Effective management of data and digital systems is central to the delivery of excellent public services and to a thriving local democracy but increasingly cyber security presents one of the biggest threats. We will support councils through the following key programmes: 

• cyber, digital and technology programme, to improve the secure use of digital technology by councils and communities and support councils to address emerging trends and issues
• data programme, including LG Inform and LG Inform Plus, to support local authorities in benchmarking and performance management and help them make better use of data.

Delivering on our ambition to be the voice of local government and the best membership organisation we can be demands an efficient, well-managed and financially resilient business and a reputation for delivering high quality and value for money.

Our staff and members are central to that ambition. The leadership of our elected members, the technical expertise of our staff and our ability to speak on behalf of local government are our unique selling points.

Our four political groups provide the main route through which we extend our reach to councillors from every member council and into the wider local government sector.

We actively seek feedback from our member authorities so we can prioritise those issues that are most important to them and we rapidly reprioritise when circumstances demand.

Equalities, diversity and inclusion and action to tackle climate change and minimise the negative impact of our activities are central to the way that we manage our business.

Our values underpin all our work:

Inclusive − we ensure that our work is inclusive of all voices.

Ambitious − we are ambitious for councils and their communities and are committed to striving for excellence in all that we do to support our colleagues, our membership and the sector to deliver the best possible outcomes.

Collaborative −we bring together the expertise and skills needed, working as one team.
