Yesterday IMPOWER’s Mark Lloyd CBE and Martin Ellender took part in a roundtable jointly facilitated with CIPFA. The discussion started by asking “are there any good savings left for local government?” and we emerged to the news that the next general election had been set! Our participants, from across local public services, concluded that there are still ways for all but the most financially distressed authorities to put better outcomes at the heart of their financial planning. However, we need the next government to grasp opportunities that will enable the public sector to deliver better outcomes for less. By testing new models of reform, and maybe even refreshing successful initiatives from the recent past, now is the time for the sector to embrace innovation and cross-boundary working. Full write-up to follow! #publicfinance #cipfa #betteroutcomes

This morning, CIPFA's new CEO Owen Mapley welcomed all attendees at the Public Finance Live 2024 conference at Manchester Central. His discussion focused on long-term planning, sustainability and technology. Here are five key highlights from his speech: ✔ "CIPFA has a proud tradition of strong presidents from all different parts of our membership." ✔ "It’s a privilege to work in public service and our role at the heart of decision making is tough, so it is heartening to see the language, tone and early choices from the new government." ✔ "There is recognition that strong public services, and strong and empowered places, must be drivers of local economic growth - contribution to the governments primary mission around growth." ✔ "We need to see even stronger collaboration - between central and local, between local public services, with local people and communities." ✔ "We hold a set of skeleton keys to our organisations. Whether it be regarding affordability; as a bridge from strategy to operational delivery; as Value for Money (VfM) champions; as probity and ethics guardians, as reporters of the accurate truth or assurers, we can and must roam free across our organisations and our systems. Providing challenge, insight, support as partners, but where necessary as bold tellers of inconvenient truths." #PublicFinanceLive2024 #PFLive24 #ManchesterCentral #PublicFinance #PublicServices #LocalGovernment #CentralGovernment #PublicSector #CPD #Conference #Finance #PublicFinance #Accountancy
