Background:

This report presented the proposed new One Medway Council Plan 2024-28. This set out the vision, ambitions, priorities and associated Performance Indicators (PIs) that would be used to track performance against the Council’s key priorities and sub-priorities.

Public consultation had been undertaken which had resulted in 318 responses being received, a summary of which was provided at Appendix 2 of the report.

The report stated that under each of the five interconnected priorities that would drive the work of the Council, there would be sub-priorities accompanied by relevant performance indicators. The Council Plan would act as the primary framework for setting the direction and vision of the Council over the medium term, supported by several key corporate strategies.

The report had previously been considered by the Business Support and Digital Overview and Scrutiny Committee on 4 April 2024 and its comments were set out in section 9 of the report. Following Cabinet, the Council Plan would be presented

to Full Council to agree on 15 May 2024.

A Diversity Impact Assessment had been undertaken in relation to the Council Plan and was attached at Appendix 4 to the report.
