Decision:

(a)          That the committee noted the levels of progress and confidence in the achievement of priorities as at mid-year within the 2022/23 Council Plan.

 

(b)          That the committee endorsed and supported the overall performance against 2022/23 Council Plan performance indicators as at mid-year.

 

(c)          That the committee was assured by explanations given for those areas of underperformance.

Minutes:

In presenting the report the Chief Officer (Planning Environment & Economy) said this mid-year report covered the areas of the Council Plan which related to this Committee. 

 

He provided detailed information on the four areas of red risks

 

·      Procurement – engagement with smaller companies to deliver energy projects or energy efficiencies within properties and provided detail on the Dynamic Processing System.

·      Digital Connectivity in Rural Areas – he referred to the December meeting where this was identified as a pressure as an officer post had not been filled.  It was hoped to fill the role before the new financial year.

·      Social Value – this was something that should go to all areas of the council

 

            The Chief Officer (Streetscene) reported on the red risk for Regional Transport Plan.  Further guidance was awaited from Welsh Government (WG) on how local authorities were expected to deliver the Regional Transport Plan.  Draft Guidance was issued for local authorities to comment on before Christmas and the authority’s comments had been returned to them.  This remained a red risk as there was no firm plan on how this was going to be delivered.  The authority was proposing to review the Integrated Transport Strategy for Flintshire to understand how this fed into the Regional Transport Plan but this was unable to happen until WG had outlined their expectations.

           

The recommendations in the report were moved and seconded by Councillors Richard Lloyd and Ian Hodge.

 

RESOLVED:

 

(a)          That the committee noted the levels of progress and confidence in the achievement of priorities as at mid-year within the 2022/23 Council Plan.

 

(b)          That the committee endorsed and supported the overall performance against 2022/23 Council Plan performance indicators as at mid-year.

 

(c)          That the committee was assured by explanations given for those areas of underperformance.
