PDF 246 KB
The Chief Executive will submit a report (Document “CK”) which provides Executive Members with a summary of the Council’s overall achievements in the first six months of the 2020/21 municipal year. Alongside this an overview of performance against the Council’s KPIs for the first 6 months of 2020/2021. This overview focused on measures where there has been new, comparable data since the update provided at July’s Executive Committee.
This report was originally tabled as part of the Q2 finance performance report and has not been included on the published forward plan. Given the length of detail of activity as a result of the response to COVID-19, we have decided to include this as a separate report. As it is impractical to defer the decision until it has been included in the published Forward Plan the report is submitted in accordance with paragraph 10 of the Executive Procedure Rules set out in the Council’s Constitution.

The Chief Executive submitted a report (Document “CK”) which provided the Executive with a summary of the Council’s overall achievements in the first six months of the 2020/21 municipal year. Alongside this was an overview of performance against the Council’s KPIs for the first 6 months of 2020/2021. This overview focused on measures where there had been new, comparable data since the update provided at July’s Executive.
This report was originally tabled as part of the Quarter 2 finance performance report and had not been included on the published forward plan. Given the length of detail of activity as a result of the response to COVID-19, it was decided to include this as a separate report, as it was impractical to defer the decision until it had been included in the published Forward Plan, the report was therefore submitted in accordance with paragraph 10 of the Executive Procedure Rules as set out in the Council’s Constitution.
The work around the response to the pandemic was particularly highlighted and the dedication and work of staff was commended, in particular the effort to tackle rough sleepers and the support offered to those who were shielding during the first lockdown. The roll out and success of the track and trace arrangements in Centenary Square and the Marley Fields site was also alluded to. In relation to the performance data, the new Council Plan that would be published in due course would take over much of this work, however the target position in most service areas remained good.
The Leader acknowledged that the performance data contained in the report was remarkable given that we were in the midst of a pandemic and again she commended staff for their efforts in ensuring delivery of services across the piece, and in many cases staff going above and beyond and working over weekends to ensure vital service provision was maintained. Mention was also made on the achievements in dealing with rough sleepers and she hoped that this work would continue into the future so that homeless people had sustained tenancies. She also extended her thanks to the voluntary and business sectors for their work during the current time, stressing that partnership working was key in moving forward and dealing with the impacts of the pandemic.
Resolved
