The Cabinet Member for Corporate Performance and Delivery introduced the performance report under the new, interim corporate performance framework which covered the second quarter of the 2016/17 financial year.

The Cabinet Member explained that the report brought together the ongoing work across the Council to ensure that key ambitions and promises were being delivered and he referred to the red, amber and green (RAG) ratings that showed performance trends.

The Cabinet Member for Environment and Street Scene referred to the reduction in staff sickness absence following the reintroduction of a range of intervention measures and was particularly pleased to note that, over the preceding 12-month period, more than 2,000 staff had no sickness absence.  The Cabinet Member for Corporate Performance and Delivery was also thanked for the particular focus that he had given to addressing the ‘red rated’ areas of underperformance.

The Cabinet resolved to:

(i)  Note progress against the Key Accountabilities as detailed in Appendix 1 to the report; and

(ii)  Note performance against the key performance indicators (KPIs) as detailed in Appendix 2 to the report.
