The Board received a report that provided an overview of performance against Local Area Agreement targets within the Board’s responsibility during the first quarter of 2009/10.

It was noted that the format of the report had been altered to provide a better sense of context. The data presented was taken from the Council’s performance monitoring system Covalence and views were sought from the Board as to whether the format of the report was acceptable.

There was a general consensus the targets which fell within the responsibility of the Board should be presented separately from cross cutting targets. More broadly, it was suggested that a mechanism was required to monitor performance across the Theme Boards and there was agreement that officers should raise this outside the meeting with the HSP Manager.

It was also agreed that further commentary, with respect to the four lead targets, should be included within future reports.

RESOLVED:

1. That the report be noted.

2. That future reports should separate and focus on the four lead targets within the Board’s responsibility.

3. That there should be discussion outside the meeting regarding how performance was measured across the partnership.
