Performance management Quarter 1 2021/22

02/11/2021 - Quarter 1 Performance Report 2021

Cabinet considered the interim head of policy and programmes’ report, which set out the first quarterly performance report for the Corporate Plan 2020-2024.  The report demonstrated the progress made in the reporting period against the corporate aims as set out in the Corporate Plan. 

 

The Cabinet member reported that following Cabinet’s approval of the performance management framework, this was the first quarterly report.  Scrutiny Committee had reviewed it and had made suggestions for improvements, which the Cabinet member had accepted were necessary, such as the need for more quantitative metrics.  The report would be adapted over time and would include Cabinet members’ input.  It was also hoped that in future, the quarterly reports could be published earlier, within six weeks of the end of each quarter. 

 

Cabinet thanked officers for their work in producing the first quarterly report.  Cabinet recognised that the report publicised the extent of the work carried out by the council.  It also demonstrated leadership and raised the council’s profile. 

 

RESOLVED: to approve the performance report for quarter 1 of 2021.
