An ambitious agenda

London's focus on improvement has paid significant dividends in recent years - but the capital can still set its sights even higher, says Cllr Michael White

I have high aspirations for London. The focus on improvement through the lens of London's Improvement bodies - Capital Ambition, the London Centre of Excellence and London Connects - over the last few years has yielded significant results. London's CPA scores have improved significantly since 2002; London boroughs are now the highest performing type of councils and customer satisfaction in London is above the national average. The capital's authorities are performing well on their efficiency targets, and 21 authorities now have beacon status.

The London Improvement Board debates the strategic improvement and efficiency priorities for London's public services. As its chairman, my role is to liaise with the Local Government Association (LGA) Improvement Board and to lead the agenda to collaborate with the London Assembly and key regional strategic partners.
