Report of the Executive Director – Corporate Services and Commercial

Annexe A to the report to follow

Further to Minute No. 26 of 25 July 2024, the Cabinet considered the report of the Executive Director – Corporate Services and Commercial indicating that, on 25 July 2024 the Cabinet agreed the Sefton Corporate Plan (2024 to 2027), with revised corporate objectives to deliver the Council’s agreed strategic priorities. The Cabinet had also agreed an updated Service Planning and Performance Management framework, aligned to the refresh of the Sefton Corporate Plan (2024 to 2027), for embedding the service level improvements in performance management, and to inform regular, collective, and cross-cutting performance discussions by the Cabinet. The report presented the first Corporate Performance Report at Annex A for Quarter 1 and Quarter 2 of 2024/25 that would be presented to the Cabinet quarterly and which demonstrated performance against the commitments agreed in the Sefton Corporate Plan (2024 to 2027).

The following annex was attached to the report:

·       Annex A - the refreshed Corporate Performance Report, including data for operating/fiscal quarters Q1 and Q2 2024.

Reference was made to page 231 of Annex A of the report and the fact that the NEET figure required amendment to read as 6.7% for the Q2 average including July, August, and September performance.

Decision Made:

That the corporate performance report for Quarter 1 and Q 2 of 2024/25, against the Sefton Corporate Plan (2024 to 2027), be received.

Reasons for the Decision:

The refreshed Sefton Corporate Plan 2024 to 2027 stated the specific corporate objectives to deliver the Council’s key strategic priorities over the next period and would be used as an opportunity to ensure that underpinning strategies and plans across the organisation also reflected the key priorities of the Council over the next period. It would help to keep the Council priorities front and centre, corporately, with partners, and collectively owned.

Alternative Options Considered and Rejected:
