Council Organisations

We are a stakeholder in a range of groups established by regional and central government and have a non-controlling interest in many community organisations.

Any organisation where one or more local authorities control any proportion of the voting rights, or where a local authority has the right to appoint one or more directors or trustees is a 'Council Organisation'.

Under the Local Government Act 2002 these organisations are generally grouped into three main types:

1. Council Controlled Organisations (CCOs)
2. Council Controlled Trading Organisations (CCTOs)
3. Council Organisations
