North East Improvement & Efficiency Partnership: Information for Councillors
Councillors are at the very heart of the Improvement & Efficiency Partnership. Our political accountability is provided by the Leaders & Elected Mayors' group of the Association of North East Councils.
From Leaders and Cabinet Members, to front line councillors, there is a range of activity happening in the Partnership that councillors will find of interest, or can help to shape and influence. Remember, the RIEP is not a stand-alone body - it is a regional partnership of all twelve Councils and the four Fire & Rescue Services.
