Members gave consideration to a report regarding the Measure and Target Setting for Progress and Delivery reporting for 2025/26. The Change, Projects and Performance Officer provided Members with a comprehensive break down of the proposed changes for 2025/26, detailing those changes which involved new measures or targets, previous measures or targets which were proposed for removal, and also those which were being updated or amended. The reasoning behind each addition, removal, or amendment was explained, with assurance that some aspects would be repeated in the narrative of the quarterly Progress and Delivery reporting.

The Chairman thanked the Officer for her presentation, and those Members who had been involved in the process. In opening to questions from the Committee, further thanks were expressed to Officers for the work involved.

A Member of the Committee enquired as to what was considered a recordable complaint in terms of the leisure centres, stating that verbal comments should be recorded as well. Additionally, it was enquired whether the figures relating to fly-tipping covered any and all reports to the council. Officers confirmed that any report of fly-tipping would be included in those figures, regardless of how it was reported. In response to the query about complaints to the leisure centres, Officers undertook to clarify details which would be included in subsequent reports.

The continued engagement with the West Lindsey lottery was highlighted and welcomed, and it was enquired as to whether the number of grants awarded could be shown per area, as that would demonstrate the benefits to the entire district. It was explained this narrative could be included in future quarterly reports.

With further thanks to all involved, and having been moved, seconded and voted upon, it was unanimously

RESOLVED that the 2025/26 Progress & Delivery measure set be approved.
