NCC is a unitary local Authority created in April 2009 by the merger of the former county and district councils. Since the formation of the new unitary council the focus has been on ensuring an effective transition from the previous arrangements, with this successfully achieved the contracting authority is now entering a new phase of working to find different and innovative ways of responding to help Northumberland meet these challenges and create opportunities that in turn convert into significant improvements for individuals, families, businesses and communities in Northumberland. In order to deliver a greater future the contracting authority needs to deliver a mixed economy in the way it delivers services with a drive to improve the efficiency and effectiveness in the way it delivers and commission services.
