How can work at a council not achieve an increase in productivity? Are councils and thei workers all well oiled machines churning out their range of roles in exactly 40 hours per week, no more no less?

An increase in costs without a matching increase in income leads to a decrease in profits.
It takes a fixed amount of time to perform certain functions, eg refuse collection. When dealing with a person on the telephone with a complaint or query, it takes time. If there are more efficient ways of doing something, it will only be the private sector that bothers with it.
