Council Consultation Strategy

The key messages in the strategy are:

• The Council is committed to consulting users and residents
• Consultation is a mainstream activity of the Council, not an add-on.
• The consultation techniques used will be appropriate to the people to be consulted, the use to which the consultation will be put and resources available.
• Findings and how they have influenced decisions will be reported to people who were consulted, and the wider public.
• Information collected will be shared across the Council so we don't waste resources and people's time duplicating surveys.
• We will make special efforts to contact groups who, in the past, have not always had their voice heard by the Council - such as people with a disability, ethnic minorities and young people.
