Members considered a report summarising the overall performance within each Portfolio Holder’s area of responsibility against indicators and targets agreed by Cabinet in July 2013.

The Head of Transformation and Strategy reported that 80% of indicators were on target however, there were four indicators that were currently performing 10% or more below target and therefore in the ‘red’ category.

The Leader of the Council noted that a number of the targets had only been missed by a small amount.  However, the number of missed refuse collections was important as the refuse service was a key universal service that the Council provided to every resident of the District.  This service therefore needed to be gold standard.

The Cabinet discussed the ‘red’ indicators relating to the Planning Service and agreed that these should be referred to the relevant Cabinet Advisory Committee.

Resolved: That the indicators relating to Planning Performance be referred to the Environment and Local Planning Advisory Committee for further investigation.
