Special consultation from Havering's new Chief Executive
In his first
week at the helm of Havering Council, the new Chief Executive, Andrew
Blake-Herbert, is asking residents how they want to get the information they
need from the Council.
"We all know
too well that the way in which people get the news and information they need
has changed, and continues to at a rapid rate.
"One of the
things I want to do is be completely open. So if there’s a way we can
communicate with residents better, then that’s what I want to do.
"This
consultation asks people how they prefer to receive Council information and
also what their experiences have been of contacting the local authority.
"We know we might not like all the answers we get to some of the questions, but
I’m serious about making the work we do here completely transparent, and always
focussing on better outcomes for residents.
"The
consultation also asks how much you value Council publications, such as
Living in Havering, which goes to
every household in the borough, and the email newsletters, which are currently
subscribed to by more than 100,000 people.
"I really hope
that residents will take just a few minutes to tell us their thoughts and help
us to make a difference by taking part in this consultation."
