Issue - meetings

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

The Cabinet Member explained that the new approach had a greater focus on the Council’s key ambitions and the delivery of outcomes that supported local residents’ aspirations.  It was also designed to complement the stronger strategic role of Cabinet Members and would continue to be developed to give more focus to quantitative performance indicators and, for 2017/18 onwards, the Council’s enhanced role as a commissioning-based organisation.

The Cabinet Member for Social Care and Health Integration commented that the new approach concentrated on the most important issues to the local community.  The information would also support the Council’s continued efforts to hold other providers to account for the services that they provided to the local community.

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 Appendices 2 and 3 to the report.
