To consider the report of the acting deputy chief executive – transformation and operations. 

Cabinet considered the report of the acting deputy chief executive – transformation and operations.  The report set out feedback from the consultation on the draft corporate plan for 2020 to 2024. 

The Cabinet member with responsibility for the corporate plan thanked all those who had responded during the consultation.  There had been 773 responses.  The feedback had been positive and helpful.  As a result, the plan had been amended and had received Scrutiny Committee’s support.  Following the Scrutiny Committee meeting, the draft plan had been updated and an amended appendix 4 to the report had been circulated to Cabinet members.  Council would be asked to adopt the plan and a marketing launch would be held at the end of October. 

Cabinet welcomed the consultation responses and the amended draft plan.  Councillors also thanked officers for their work on the plan and thanked the public for the encouraging feedback.
