To consider the quarterly performance report, showing indicators which have improved, declined or remained static when compared to the same period in the previous financial year.

(Report attached)

The Committee received a report on the Council’s performance for Quarter 2 of the 2011/12 financial year.

Members were asked to consider a range of options for future reporting of performance in response to changing demands resulting from the transformation programme.

Officers reported that information had been provided on 27 indicators for Quarter 2.  Of those, 10 had improved in performance and 16 had declined compared to the same period last year.  In addition, 1 indicator had remained static with performance at optimum level.

Members were informed that of the indicators that showed a decline in performance only 2 were of particular concern and action had been taken to remedy the problem in each case.

RESOLVED that

1)         the Corporate Management Team, in conjunction with Members, select key performance indicators of concern and remedial action to be taken, for reporting on a quarterly basis;

2)         the Committee consider future proposals for performance reporting as the Council progresses the Transformation agenda; and

3)         the update on key performance indicators for the period ending 30th September 2011 be noted.
