Corporate Plan retrospective report on performance during 2016/17 and proposed Performance Indicator targets for 2017/18
Meeting: 17/07/2017 - Cabinet (Item 13)
(Cabinet Decision)
Minutes:
The Director of Corporate Services and Governance submitted a report which advised Cabinet of year-end performance for 2016/17 and the proposed performance indicator targets for 2017/18. The report included the comments which had been received from Overview and Scrutiny Committee on these items; it also gave an outline of performance arrangements for the year ahead.
The corporate plan sets out the council’s strategic direction. The report gave an update on performance on a range of key activities throughout 2016/17, it also set out the proposed performance indicator targets for 2017/18. Cabinet has delegated authority to agree year end performance and performance indicator targets for the year ahead, prior to publication on the council’s website.
Overview and Scrutiny Committee had considered the proposed performance indicator targets at their meeting on 15 June 2017. Scrutiny members had recommended that the performance indicator 2.1, which related to the number of people attending White Rock Theatre performances, continue to be reported to Overview and Scrutiny Committee during 2017/18, given continued council investment in the theatre.
The recommendations of the Director of Corporate Services and Governance’s report were agreed without being called for discussion.
RESOLVED that:
1. The comments of the Overview and Scrutiny Committee be considered
2. Year-end performance for 2016/17 and proposed performance indicator targets for 2017/18 be approved, and;
3. Cabinet support intentions to continue to improve corporate performance and planning arrangements in line with the council’s transformation intentions
The reason for this decision was:
The council’s corporate plan is one of the key documents by which the council is held to account for its performance, therefore honest and transparent reporting back of how well we performance against targets in the previous year is essential. Local people and staff also need to be aware of the targets and standards we have set for ourselves, and where any of these targets have changed from previous years we need to be clear about the reasons why.
