The final evaluation report for the 2021–2025 council term has been published

The evaluation report examines how the objectives set by the council have been achieved and whether the activities have been effective and appropriate. In the 2024 assessment, the audit committee will pay particular attention to maintaining economic balance, delays in the implementation of decisions and the use of assessment data in management. In addition, the municipality’s strong growth and housing production in recent years, which deviates from the objectives of the municipality’s housing policy programme, will be highlighted. Improving the monitoring and reporting of implementation is important in order to translate strategic objectives into effective action.

In its assessment report, the Audit Committee presents recommendations for developing operations. The Audit Committee considers it necessary to strengthen internal and inter-institutional interaction, monitor strategic indicators consistently, and ensure that the division of labour between committees and officials is clear and in accordance with the administrative regulations.

The Audit Committee’s task is to evaluate the past, but it must also look to the future. One of the most important tasks of the evaluation work is to identify areas for development and highlight opportunities for improving the functioning of the entire municipal organisation, including the work of the council.

For this purpose, the Audit Board has prepared a separate section in the evaluation report entitled Impact and interaction with institutional work – roles, practices and development.

The municipal council requests that the municipal board respond to the observations, requests for clarification and recommendations presented in the report.
