TEAM AWARD FOR REGISTRATION SERVICE
THE
Registration Service operated by North Yorkshire County Council is one of the
best teams in the country according to official sources.
The
service has been chosen as one of seven finalists in a competition to decide the
best Local Government Top Team for 2002. The
nationwide competition was open to all services in all local authorities.
The
competition seeks outstanding examples of achievements by teams delivering
services to the community. North
Yorkshire’s entry showed how, by innovation, creativity and a lot of hard
work, the registration service has been transformed into one of the leading
services in the country.
The
finals will be at Kensington Town Hall on November 27 when officers from the
Service will present their case to a distinguished panel of judges.
Councillor
John Dennis, the county council's executive member with responsibility for the
registration service, said: "We have always aimed to make this the best
registration service in the country. It
is even more pleasing to know that we are now among the very best teams covering
all services. This is a tribute to the staff who have worked so long and hard to
achieve this."
The
competition is organised by the Local Government Management Network and
supported by SOLACE (Society of Chief Executives) and the Local Government
Association.
