Report of the Leader

Resolved that the Performance Review for 2010/11 be approved.

The Leader introduced the report which summarised how the council had performed last year in regard to the published milestones, performance indicators and outcomes set out in the 2010-2015 corporate strategy. The results set out represented a good performance against the milestones and the now reduced number of indicators.  He highlighted the fact that it was an exception report and therefore by its nature focussed on any targets which had been missed.  The report had been considered by the Economy and Business Improvement Overview and Scrutiny Committee and they had welcomed the improved format of the report and the level of performance.

Commenting on the targets that had been missed, he advised that waste was a key priority for the council and he hoped that the roll-out of the new waste systems would improve performance going forward.  Sickness absence was an issue and new processes had been introduced to improve performance.

RESOLVED that the Performance Review for 2010/11 be approved.
