The Assistant Chief Executive submitted a report which detailed the results of the consultation on the draft Corporate Plan 2016 – 2020 and proposed its adoption.

The Assistant Chief Executive confirmed that the version of the Corporate Plan which would be submitted to Council had been fully fact-checked in light of the recent changes to local government finance and national policy.

The Board noted the Scrutiny Committee concerns regarding the low number of responses. The recommendation relating to the corporate success measures had been rejected because tenant satisfaction was already measured and the proposed measure for new homes granted permission was outside the Council’s control.

The City Executive Board resolved to:

1.    approve the draft Corporate Plan 2016 -2020 as set out in Appendix 1; and

2.    recommend Council to resolve to approve the draft Corporate Plan 2016 – 2020 and delegate authority to the Assistant Chief Executive to make minor textual/formatting changes to the Corporate Plan 2016 – 2010 in advance of formal publication.

The Assistant Chief Executive submitted a report which presented the draft Corporate Plan 2016 – 2020 for public consultation.

Cllr Price, Board Member Corporate Strategy and Economic Development presented the report.  He said that officers had been working on the style and content of the Corporate Plan with the aim of making it a shorter, sharper and forward looking document.

The Assistant Chief Executive said that the year on year target information would be available in the post-consultation version of the Corporate Plan.  She would also be reviewing the design and style of the final document.

The City Executive Board resolved to:

1.    Approve the draft Corporate Plan 2016 – 2020 for public consultation.
