About this event
If key network infrastructure services are delivered at arm’s length from decision-making elected officials, how will that shape local government?
Taituarā commissioned McGredy Winder & Co. to consider the opportunities and risks created by such a shift.
This webinar will consider what implications widespread delivery of future services at arm’s length may have for:
- the governance and operations of local authorities
- the purpose, structure and functions of the sector
- funding arrangements
This webinar will be of particular interest to those involved with infrastructure, governance and finance within councils. It is also of general interest to all local government professionals.
