The Society of County Treasurers (SCT) is comprised of all Chief Financial Officers from the 21 shire counties in English local government. Following successive reorganisations of local government (LGR), the SCT also includes 20 shire unitary authorities that have similar interests in local government issues. Together, SCT authorities represent 48% of the population of England and provide services across 87% of its land area. www.sctnet.org.uk CCN is the voice of England’s counties. Representing the local authorities in county areas, the network is a cross- party organisation which develops policy, commissions research, and presents evidence-based solutions to issues on behalf of the largest grouping of councils in England. In total, the 21 county councils and 18 unitary councils that make up the CCN represent 27 million residents, account for 39% of England’s gross value added (GVA), and deliver high- quality services that matter the most to local communities. www.countycouncilsnetwork.org.uk
