44 Corporate Performance Update: Quarter One 2021/22 PDF 539 KB
Minutes:
The
Mayor and Lead Member for Children’s Social Care, Adult Social Care and Public
Health and the Chief Executive submitted a report for the Executive’s
consideration.
The
purpose of the report was to advise of corporate performance at the end of Quarter
One 2021/22 and, where appropriate, seek approval of changes.
The
Council’s performance overall at the end of Quarter One had been positive, with
expected performance standards (as set out in the Council’s risk appetite)
being achieved in the majority of areas. Further work was required in respect
of plans to achieve some Strategic Plan outcome targets, and a review of risk
registers in line with the Council’s new strategic priorities would be
completed in Quarter Two.
In
terms of progress in delivering Executive actions, at Quarter One 58 of 59 live
actions (98%) were on target to be delivered by the agreed timescales
(exceeding the 90% standard of achievement of actions), with one proposed
amendment for Executive approval that was set out at Appendix 1 of the
submitted report. Further information on the proposed amendment was detailed at
paragraph 10 of the report.
In
terms of progress in delivering the Strategic Plan 2021-24, at the end of
Quarter One 15 of 24 (62.5%) Strategic Plan outcomes were on target against the
corporate standard of 75%, as set out in the table below paragraph 12 of the
submitted report. Further information on the strategic plan outcomes and
workplan was contained at paragraphs 12 to 23 of the submitted report.
Issues
raised within the submitted report that impacted on the risk profile of the
Council were reflected within the Council’s Strategic Risk Register (SRR),
which was reviewed in the quarter in line with the Council’s policy and was set
out at Appendix 2 of the submitted report. Key points to note were detailed at
paragraph 24 of the submitted report.
In
terms of progress in delivering Directorate Priorities for 2021/22 and risk
mitigations, at the end of Quarter One 100% of Directorate priorities were
rated either Green or Amber (i.e. some milestone slippage but still expected to
be delivered in-year), in line with the expected standard of 90%. Performance
in delivering mitigating actions associated with high or medium risks on
Directorate risk registers was above the expected performance standard of 90%.
In
terms of progress in delivering Programmes and Projects, at the end of Quarter
One 20 of 27 programmes were rated Green and the remaining seven Amber,
together meeting the expected standard of 90%. While
some projects required updated milestones due to the impact of COVID-19, no
significant issues were escalated at the end of Quarter One.
In
terms of progress in other corporate performance matters, key points to note
were detailed at paragraph 30 of the submitted report.
