The Trust received a report that evaluated the Children and Young People’s Plan for 2006-9.

It was noted that the Evaluation was now in the final stages of drafting and that it would be published in September on the Council’s website and in hard copy. It was requested that Partners also made the document available on their respective websites.

The Trust discussed the Evaluation and it was suggested that the document should provide further analysis of where actions taken as part of the CYPP had resulted in successful outcomes and conversely where action had not resulted in any significant improvement. This would be useful in determining where resources should be targeting within the new CYPP.

The Chair noted that the Evaluation was a public document and therefore it might be more appropriate if more detailed financial information was provided in a report to the CT EPGM for consideration.

It was suggested that the new CYPP should build in evaluation and that milestones should be set and monitored to ensure that performance could be monitored through its life. It was proposed that milestones should also be aligned to spend to ensure that resources were being used as effectively as possible.

RESOLVED:

1. That the document set out in more detail where actions arising from the CYPP had made a positive impact.    

2. That the Evaluation of the Children and Young People’s Plan 2006-09 be noted.

3. That, once published in September, partners should make the document available on their respective websites.
