The winners were:
The Acknowledge Award is sponsored by Grant Thornton, and recognises the importance of acknowledging and pro-actively managing fraud risks in local government in order to prevent and detect fraud losses.
The winner of the award was Suffolk County Council.
The Prevent Award is sponsored by Cifas, and acknowledges new or existing innovative collaborations - either between local authorities or between local authorities and external partners.
The winner was Peter Miles from Rochford District Council.
The Pursue Award is sponsored by Intelligencia, and recognises the outstanding work by local authorities in detecting and investigating fraud on a day to day basis.
The winner was Bristol City Council for their Tenancy Fraud and Abuse work.
