Code of Corporate Governance
Our Local Code of Corporate Governance (PDF, 279KB) reflects the requirements of:
- CIPFA Delivering Good Governance in Local Government Framework 2016 Edition
- the supporting Guidance Notes for Scottish Authorities 2016 Edition
The framework outlines the core principles for governing at a local level. We build our code around this framework.
It positions the attainment of sustainable economic, societal, and environmental outcomes as a key focus of governance processes and structures.
There is focus on:
- long term sustainability
- the crucial links between governance and public financial management
We must consider the impact of decisions and actions on future generations. Within our code you can see how we:
- demonstrate compliance with these principles
- work to uphold them on a day to day basis.
