This report focusses on the risks of fraud and corruption when councils procure and commission goods, works and services. The findings of this review have reinforced the message that there is no single solution for tackling the issue of fraud and corruption within procurement, but rather a range of measures that can be implemented to reduce the risks faced by the sector. This report highlights examples of good practice that councils already have in place and presents a series of anonymised case studies to demonstrate where councils have taken action against procurement fraud and corruption.
