Two improvements from Basildon

1. Investment in electronic payment methods allowed the Council to centralise its cashiers offices also improving the payment options and providing better access to the service. The total saving (including the additional investment costs) is approximately £218,999 per year.
2. Additionally a major insurance exercise was carried out with a view to redcuing the insurance premiums. This resulted in the previous insurer being relaced by five different insurers achieving a saving of approximately £678,000 per year.

Thank you to Basildon District Council for these two examples.
