The Committee considered a report that provided a view on aspects of the Council’s overall performance for Quarter 1 of the 2009/10 financial year when compared to the same quarter in 2008/09.

Each Portfolio Holder made a report on their area of responsibility.

Officers reported that the total number of corporate performance indicators providing outturn data for Quarter 1 was 35.  Of these, 21 showed improvement in performance, 9 showed a decline and 5 showed no change.  Those that showed no change were at optimum performance and, therefore, impossible to improve.

Members noted the improved Performance Indicators in each Directorate as follows:

Deputy Chief Executive

NI 020, NI 155, NI 180, NI 181, BV 008, BV 174, BV 175, ET 015, HH 016

Members agreed that overall the report was positive and asked that staff be informed of their comments.

Officers were asked to change the order of columns in the Corporate Performance Exception Report relating to current information.  Information on Recovery Plans and the pilot project on Smart Cards for Concessionary Fares was to be circulated with the minutes.

RESOLVED that

the update on key performance indicators for the period April to June 2009 be noted.
