in the Appendix to this report;

1.2 Agree that the Director of Business Services continues to report,

six monthly on progress in delivering the priority projects.

2 Discussion

2.1 At its meeting on 23 April 2016, Policy & Resources Committee agreed the Business Services 2016-2019 Service Plan.

2.4 This Committee agreed in September 2016 that it should receive six monthly

progress update reports for scrutiny purposes with the first report to be

presented in November 2016. The report for the period April – September

2016 is attached as an Appendix.

2.5 The Head of Finance and Monitoring Officer within Business Services have been consulted in the preparation of this report and support the recommendations.

3 Equalities, Staffing and Financial Implications

3.1 An equality impact assessment is not required because the report is to inform

committee on performance and there will be no differential impact, as a result

of the report, on people with protected characteristics.

3.2 There are no specific staffing or financial implications arising from this report

but progress is used to inform improvement activity and future budget

planning.
