Report of Executive Director (Strategy and Change)

Additional documents:

Minutes:

The Cabinet considered a report of the Executive Director (Strategy and Change) presenting the quarter one corporate performance report for the period 1st April to 30th June 2024.

 

Resolved:

 

That the Corporate Performance Report as at 30th June 2024, as set out in appendix 1 to the submitted report, be noted.

 

Reason for Decision:

 

1. The Corporate Performance Report informs decision making to ensure that the Council’s priorities are on track to be achieved and aligns with the Financial Performance Report to ensure that they are delivered within the approved budget provision.

 

2. Improving efficiency and productivity is essential but the scale of the unprecedented financial pressures will inevitably lead to a reduction in the range, quality, cost and responsiveness of other discretionary Council services, as well as challenging our approach to statutory services. 

 

Other Options:

 

The Council could monitor its corporate performance against an alternative timeframe, but it is considered that the current reporting schedule provides the appropriate balance to allow strategic oversight of the budget by Councillors. More frequent monitoring is undertaken by officers and considered by individual service Directors and the Council’s Corporate Leadership Team (CLT) including the implementation of any necessary remedial actions.

·       How ‘tree net gain’ was measured, as the indicator was different from the previous year in order to provide a more accurate measure for how successful the tree planting programme had been at the end of the season.

·       The measures in place to water newly planted whips and saplings, to ensure the success of the tree planting programme; to which the Cabinet Member Cabinet Member for Climate, Environment and Waste confirmed that she would circulate a written response regarding the tree planting programme and responsibilities for care and maintenance.

·       The importance of combining tree planning with street paving repair works, where possible during tree planting season.
