Decision details

(Time: 4.12pm to 4.17pm)

The Executive received and considered report 182/07 of the Strategic Director, which compared the Council’s performance for 2006/07 against that of the national top and bottom quartile data for 2006/07 which had been published by the Audit Commission.  It was noted that overall the Council's performance had been good with over a third of the indicators in the top quartile.  The Audit Commission had recognised that performance.  Appendix B set out details of nine indicators where the Council was in the bottom quartile.  However, since the end of 2006/07 some progress had been made in these areas. 

Members noted that the Best Value Performance Indicators would soon be abolished in favour of the new National Indicator set.  These new indicators would be transferred to the Council's Service Plans.  An update report on these indicators would be submitted in due course. 

RESOLVED

that the Council’s performance against the national top and bottom quartile results for 2006/07 be noted.
