This information takes the form of indicators that measure aspects of performance (for example, how much a service costs per user or how satisfied local people are with a service) across all areas of local government activity.\r \r The LGBF provides high-level information designed to encourage councils to examine why variations in cost and performance are occurring between similar councils. The framework itself does not supply the answers. That happens as councils engage with each other to ‘drill down’ and explore why these variations are happening (see information on ‘family groups’ below).\r \r Publication of the LGBF forms part of each council’s statutory public performance reporting.\r \r For more information please visit the [LGBF homepage](https://www.improvementservice.org.uk/benchmarking/home) """ ; dct:identifier "9a3728b4-49ea-40af-ab10-fc0305bace84" ; dct:issued "2023-11-13T11:49:35.403406"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2026-05-08T10:59:43.926395"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:publisher ; dct:title "Local Government Benchmarking Framework - Scotland" ; dcat:distribution , , , , , . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description "This file contains information about the LGBF Indicators.
