Agenda item - City Performance Plan & BHCC Organisational Health Report

Extract from the proceedings of the Cabinet meeting held on the 14^th July 2011, together with a joint report of the Strategic Directors of Resources and Place (copies attached).

33.1         Councillor Randall moved the report.

33.2         Councillor G. Theobald noted that the report had been referred to the Council for information at the request of the Conservative Group and that in the future the City Performance Plan would be submitted to Council for approval under the Policy Framework.  He also noted that the Local Area Agreement had been abolished by the government to cut down on the level of bureaucracy but he hoped it would not result in a dilution of priorities.  There were currently 180 performance indicators which he did not feel would prove to be meaningful.

33.3         Councillor Randall noted that the plan was owned by the Public Service Board and fed into the Sustainable Community Strategy which he hoped would be a ‘live’ document and would detail the outcomes.

33.4         The Mayor noted that the report had been referred for information and asked that it be noted.

33.5         RESOLVED: That the report be noted.
