Gedling borough council has maintained its comprehensive performance assessment (CPA) score from the Audit Commission, it has been reported.

Those working for the local authority, which operates in the north and north-east areas of Nottingham, have received a CPA rating of "good", the same result it achieved in 2005.

As such, the council was commended for providing good quality services, increasing satisfaction levels among residents and working well with partners.

Senior manager at the Audit Commission Stephen Barnett said: "The council delivers good quality services which are recognised by local residents and reflected in good satisfaction levels."

The news could be of interest to those seeking work in the public sector via a regional recruitment portal.

In related developments, Nottinghamshire county council was said to be "performing well" by the Audit Commission in September, with the authority being praised for its recycling services and its work in meeting the needs of both younger and older people.
