Purpose

Quarterly report to Cabinet on our Corporate performance indicators.

Decision

The performance report provided details of the key performance measures reported through the corporate performance framework for 2025/26. Latest performance outturns and targets were reported alongside trend and benchmarking information, where available. Commentary was provided for each indicator explaining what was being measured, explaining the narrative behind each outturn and detailing improvement actions.

Within the performance report, outturns which were performing at or better than target were classified as Green, those which were within 5% of the target were Amber and those which were more than 5% of the target were Red. At the end of quarter 2, 66 indicators had outturns reported with a Red, Amber or Green status. Of these, 44 were Green (67%), 6 were Amber (9%) and 16 were Red (24%). This compared with 64 indicators with outturns reported in quarter 1, and of these, 47 were Green (73%), 3 were Amber (5%) and 14 were Red (22%).

RESOLVED the Council’s performance be noted including the action taken to improve performance where required.
