Governance
The sector knows that in order to deliver strong local government across New Zealand, we need to raise our standards of governance and performance. While there are many strong performers we need to lift the bar higher.
LGNZ and EquiP provide best practice guidance, business solutions, governance and management support to strengthen the sector.
