Best value thematic report: Transformation, video transcript
Jennifer Henderson, Accounts Commission member
Pressure is mounting on council finances. 
Demand is increasing.
And the cost of delivering services is rising.
Scotland’s councils have been changing how they work and deliver services for years. 
Now councils must build on this.
Acting with greater urgency, ambition and pace, to match the scale of the challenge they’re facing.
To successfully redesign services councils must learn from each other, collaborate, and work alongside their communities.
Delaying this could risk greater costs and even tougher decisions about the level of service that can be delivered in the future.
