The Scrutiny Committee has a role in monitoring Council performance. Quarterly reports are provided on a set of selected corporate and service performance indicators.This item provides an opportunity for the Committee to comment on the report and make such recommendations to the Cabinet as it wishes. This report will be presented by Helen Bishop, Head of Business Improvement.

Also attached is a note of responses to matters raised by the Committee when it considered the quarter 1 report at its meeting on 01 October.

The papers before the Committee included one which noted responses to  the Committee’s previous recommendations in relation to the Q1 report. The Scrutiny Officer tabled a revised version of this paper, which had been distributed earlier in the day as a supplement to the agenda.

It was agreed to defer substantive discussion of this item until the following meeting, having asked Councillor Fry to pick up the issues raised by the Q2 report in the meantime and report back to the Committee.
