Hope many of you managed to have some time off over the summer.

Scrutiny in challenging times
Following the success of the ‘Scrutiny in Challenging Times’ seminars run jointly by ADSO, INLOGOV and CfPS, we are arranging another event on 10 November at Birmingham University. These have been very well received and places fill up quickly with a good mix of councillors and officers. So don’t delay if you or any of your members wish to attend. . Please see the INLOGOV website for details.
ADSO membership renewals
I am really pleased to say that ADSO membership continues to grow. We welcomed colleagues from Cumbria this week to the ADSO fold and this took our total number of members to over 1000 across 279 local authorities,. This is a fantastic achievement and a big thank you for your continued support.
