LGIU for you!
Moray Council is a member of LGIU Scotland - a not-for-profit information service working to inform members by providing practical, up-to-the-minute intelligence on policy issues pertinent to local government in Scotland via an international network of councils, associates, academics and other sector practitioners.
LGIU content is available to everybody at member councils and organisations and can be accessed through email or from the website by signing up.
