2008/09 Draft Corporate Performance Plan |
The joint report of the Leader and Chief Executive presented the draft Corporate Performance Plan for 2008/09, the annual performance plan being published by 30 June each year. It was noted that since previous versions of 'Spotlight' had been well received by the Audit Commission, the same format had been continued. The Plan also contained actions in respect of the priorities for improvement agreed by the Council on 20 February 2008. Members were advised that the 2008/09 edition of 'Spotlight' marked the end of Best Value Performance Indicators and the beginning of a new National Performance Indicator set from 1 April 2008. In view of the relatively early stage at which the draft plan was being presented, it was recognised that its development was an evolutionary process and the final form was likely to vary in some respects as its preparation progressed to publication. Accordingly a mechanism was proposed for approving any significant changes before distribution of the published Plan to all Members in due course. RECOMMENDED: That (1) the Draft Corporate Performance Plan for 2008/09 be adopted; (2) any significant additions/variations in the final format for publication be agreed between the Chief Executive, the Leader and the Chairman of the Policy Overview Committee; and (3) thanks be recorded to the staff of the Improvement and Development Unit for their work on production of 'Spotlight'. *Referred to Council |
