Notes

Among the better council portals in the country, which is the point of including it. Its strengths are operational and geographic data; the thinner areas are financial detail and development assessment performance, and that pattern repeats across almost every council portal we have looked at.

Councils publish what is easy to publish and safe to publish. That is not a conspiracy, it is the path of least resistance -- but it means the portals cluster around the same subjects and leave the same gaps.
