Issue - meetings

The report is to update the Committee on the Q3 Performance Outturn for the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) which make up the Corporate Plan, for the period 1 April 2024 to 31 December 2024.

          The Group Head of Operational Excellence advised the report detailed the performance results for quarter 3 and as members were all familiar with the report she would take any questions.

          The Vice-Chair then reminded members that all of the indicators were now included within the appendix, however members were reminded that they should focus on the indicators specifically for this committee, however if there were any questions for other indicators, they email those in outside of the meeting to be answered. He then invited members to ask any questions or make any comments.

          Councillor Turner stated that he wanted his approval noted for the achievement made on CP22 that reports into the Environment Committee.  Councillor Pendleton was then invited to speak where she raised concern with CP4 and wanted to understand the rationale for the increasing figures for sickness absence. Specifically, was this down to seasonal illness or was there another reason contributing to the indicators increase. The Group Head of Organisational Excellence advised that she did not have the specific breakdown of detail to hand at the meeting, but she could circulate this information outside of the meeting, however she could confirm that there had been an increase in ‘stress’ related absences. Councillor Pendleton then requested that she would like to see an analysis of the figures with officer opinion on what can be done to offset any further increase in stress related absence as she believed there could be further risk of increase now and what assistance and support could be considered.

     The Vice-Chair then requested a proposer and seconder for the recommendation, Councillor Lloyd then proposed, and Councillor Lawrence seconded the recommendation.

           The Committee

                    RESOLVED

2.1 it noted the contents of this report and provided any questions or comments on the indicators relevant to this Committee to the Policy and Finance Committee on 13 March 2025.
