Additional documents:

Decision:

The report of the Interim Chief Executive provided an update on the progress being made in delivering the priority actions set out in the Corporate Strategy Action Plan 2023/24 (attached at Annex 1)  and presented an Action Plan for 2024/25 (attached at Annex 2) for approval.

 

The Corporate Strategy Action Plan demonstrated how the Borough Council aimed to deliver on its key priorities as set out in the Corporate Strategy 2023-27.  To avoid any reputational risk if the Borough Council failed to deliver the actions identified it was important that the Plan was regularly monitored to ensure progress was being made. Regular updates would be provided setting out progress on the Action Plan 2024/25 if it was approved.

 

Despite a number of positive steps being undertaken in 2023/24, as detailed in 1.3.1 of the report, the majority of actions remained ongoing and these would appear in the Action Plan for 2024/25.  Additional actions which had increased priority over the course of the past year had also been identified for the new Plan.  These were detailed in 1.4.1 of the report and included improvements to the procurement function, implementation of Biodiversity Net Gain and Green Infrastructure Strategies.

 

RESOLVED:  That

 

(1)             the report be noted and the Corporate Strategy Action 2023/23 (attached at Annex 1) be noted; and

 

(2)             the Corporate Strategy Action Plan 2024/25 (attached at Annex 2) be approved.
