The Committee heard from the Performance and Programmes Team Manager, seeking approval for a time limited, cross-party Progress and Delivery Member Working Group as part of the process for setting the Council’s Progress and Delivery measures and targets for 2022-23. It was explained that this had last been undertaken in 2019 and the purpose of the Member Working Group was to review all of the Council’s proposed key performance indicators and corresponding targets; ensuring they reflected a balanced scorecard approach, were stretch based to reflect the Council’s ambitions and enabled a transparent view of performance across the Council’s service areas.

It was suggested that a group membership of five Councillors was preferable, with volunteers being sought from the Overview and Scrutiny Committee initially. Four Members volunteered to be involved, those being Councillors A. Lawrence, A. White, D. Rodgers and K. Panter.

The Chairman thanked those Members and, having been moved and seconded it was

RESOLVED that a time-limited, cross party Member Working Group, as part of the process for setting the Council’s Progress and Delivery measures and targets for 2022-23, be commissioned.
