Decision details
CORPORATE PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT FROM 2005
Decision Maker: Cabinet
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Purpose:
To note receipt of the provisional timetable for joint area reviews and Corporate Assessment indicating that Herefordshire was included in the provisional timetable for the period September – December 2005.
Decision:
THAT
(a) the provisional timetable be noted
(b) arrangements for supporting the process be approved and
(c) the Chief Executive be authorised to pursue the options for an external peer review.
Reasons for the decision:
The experience of the first round of the Comprehensive Performance Assessment established the importance of appropriate preparation and in particular the importance of an effective and accurate self-assessment. The provisional timetable with the anticipated inclusion of Herefordshire in the first block of authorities to be inspected places a premium on prompt preparation.
Alternative options considered:
There are no alternative options which are applicable because the Council’s position in the inspection timetable is determined by the Audit Commission.
