National Occupational Standards for the Administration of Local Revenues and Benefits
Background information
National Occupational Standards for the Administration of Local Revenues and Benefits were originally approved in 1999 and underwent further revisions in 2007. They had previously been developed by the Accountancy Occupational Standards Group (AOSG), and local revenues and associated benefits roles became part of the FSP's remit in 2008.
A review of these NOS was launched in May 2009 and it ran through until the end of December 2009. An important part of the project saw an extensive consultation with practitioners and other stakeholders taking place between July and August 2009, including a series of ‘Roadshow' events across the UK.
