An Inspector Calls: Citizen-Led Service Inspection by West Lothian CouncilIntroduction In 2011 West Lothian Council (a local authority close to Edinburgh, with about 170,000 inhabitants) initiated citizen-led inspections as a new form of engagement that empowers local people to inspect and improve public services.

In particular, they provide feedback to the local council on how public services can be improved. The key success of the process has been service improvements that are driven and designed by customers. |
