Local government officers are faced with financial challenges as serious as they've ever encountered. Many will be tempted, or encouraged, to think "outside the box" when it comes to revenue raising or service delivery. That way lies opportunity but also risk. 

In this webinar, we will consider:

  • council powers to trade and invest;
  • best value and best consideration duties in commercial and development activities;
  • subsidy control considerations;
  • raising taxes and levies and charging for services; and
  • renegotiating contracts and taking advantage of "fire sales".
