Issue - meetings

Consideration was given to a report on the outcome of the Comprehensive Performance Assessment. The report included the planned actions to address the recommendations made by the Audit Commission.

During the discussion of this item the Assistant Chief Executive referred to the importance of Members gaining a full understanding of the new Comprehensive Area Assessment process. Training would be arranged on the new system and it was important that all Members attended.  

RESOLVED:

(a)       that the Council’s significant improvement in moving from a Poor rating to a Fair rating in two years be noted;

(b)       that the further improvement which is still required in order to deliver the Council’s vision of “working together to build a district where people are proud to live and work, through community leadership and excellent services”  be recognised; and

(c)        that the recommendations made by the Audit Commission be noted and that the actions being taken to address these be approved.
