Councils were reviewed in county groups from June 2003 to early autumn 2004 with a CPA category being published for each. In July 2006, the Commission confirmed the process by which councils could be re-categorised through a corporate assessment. The Commission will only undertake CPA re-categorisation activity in the following circumstances:

• where a council requests re-categorisation and is able to demonstrate significant evidence of improvement;
• or where the Commission identifies evidence of significant deterioration.

Details of the framework the Commission will use to assess councils are set out in CPA - District Council Framework from 2006.
