Background:

 

This report provided details of how the Council had performed during quarter 2 in 2019/20 against the Council’s three priorities and the actions being taken to improve performance. There were 44 Council Plan measures for 2019/20, of which it was currently possible to report on 36 as two were data only and 6 were not available for the reporting quarter.

 

In summary, 24 out of 36 measures had met or exceeded target, 6 were slightly below target and 6 were significantly below target.
