Summary: This briefing report, a companion paper to Shared Services Across Local Government – Sharing International Experiences, synthesizes ICLRD research to date on this topic as well as presentations by experts in ICLRD executive training programmes. In doing so, this discussion paper reflects on potential directions and approaches that could be incorporated into current programmes for providing services in very constrained economic context. In this paper, there is a particular focus being placed on the Irish border region. ICLRD intends to update this briefing report and the international case studies as new information becomes available. | |
