Stakeholder Engagement
A common theme in feedback from customers about how we can improve our service was a desire for more proactive monitoring of land registry changes. This initiative was driven in response to this, with engagement of the legal and geospatial team. We are expecting to do further engagement with land owners following implementation to showcase the new capability, and are in active consultation with Innovation into wider self-service capability.
