Issue - meetings

To receive and consider the report of the Deputy Chief Executive.

To approve the Corporate Performance Framework as a shared policy document.

Vicky Willett, Shared Service Lead - Transformation and Partnerships, presented the report of the Deputy Chief Executive which presents the revised Corporate Performance Framework for approval.

A review of the Corporate Performance Framework has been undertaken. Members considered an overview of the revised performance management policy and the proposed approach to its implementation.

Decision:

To approve the Corporate Performance Framework as a shared policy document.

Reasons for recommendation(s):

To ensure that we have up-to-date and robust approach to performance management that can consistently and effectively respond to the needs of each authority across shared services.  Effective performance management is vital for improving outcomes for our communities as it provides a key mechanism for continuous service improvement and excellence.

Alternative options considered and rejected:

The alternative of not adopting the revised Corporate Performance Framework has been considered.  This would maintain current inconsistencies and limit the effective management of performance for both Councils.
