PAPER D

For Decision

Committee : EXECUTIVE

Date : 2 JULY 2002

Title : CORPORATE PLAN 2002 – 2005

“ACHIEVING EXCELLENCE THROUGH TEAM WORK”

THE DEPUTY LEADER

1. On 15 May the Council approved a ‘Strategic Vision’ for the Council and confirmed the seven key goals. This work has been extended to form Part 1 of the attached draft Corporate Plan, particularly by the addition of specific actions to be undertaken within each priority.

THE CORPORATE PLAN

2. Three further parts have now been added to Part 1:

Part 2: Making it Happen – this details our approach to corporate governance.

Part 3: Financing the Plan – outlines the financial resources we expect to be available.

Part 4: Next Steps – how the Plan will be made a reality ‘on the ground’.

3. Although the various sections of the draft Plan have been discussed and amended informally, it is now time to expose it to a wider range of views, particularly from our partners. It is therefore recommended that it is sent to our partners (detailed in Annex A) for their views. Staff views will be gathered via service meetings convened by Directors and Heads of Service.

4. This is an important document and therefore it is proposed that two months be allowed for consultation, requesting replies by Friday 6 September. As a result of feedback from the consultation, the draft will be amended and considered at the next available meeting of the Executive. Once it has the approval of the Executive, they will recommend it for adoption by the full Council, probably at its meeting on 16 October.

RECOMMENDATION

That the Head of Paid Service send the draft Plan to our partners listed in Annex A inviting their views and comments.
