sec.25 What are the key principles of commercialisation
The key principles of commercialisation , for a commercial business unit, are—
clarity of objectives, namely that the council—
gives the unit clear and non-conflicting objectives; and
sets specific financial and non-financial performance targets for the significant business activity; and
keeps activities relating to council policy formulation, or that are of a regulatory nature, separate from the unit, wherever possible; and
clearly identifies the nature and extent of the community service obligations the unit must perform; and
sets performance targets for the unit’s community service obligations; and
separately costs the unit’s community service obligations; and
appropriately compensates the unit for performing the community service obligations, and discloses details of the compensation to the public; and
management autonomy and authority, namely that—
the unit remains at arms-length to the council in day-to-day operations; and
the council gives the unit autonomy in day-to-day operations, subject to overarching monitoring; and
any directions the council gives the unit to achieve non-commercial objectives are given in an open way; and
the unit uses its best endeavours to ensure the unit meets its performance targets; and
accountability for performance, namely that—
the council monitors the unit’s performance against the performance targets; and
the unit must generally be subject to the management framework of the council; and
the unit complies with all laws the council must comply with; and
competitive neutrality, namely that the unit complies with the competitive neutrality principle by—
removing any competitive advantage or competitive disadvantage, wherever possible and appropriate; and
promoting efficiency of the use of resources to ensure markets are not unnecessarily distorted.
