ISLE OF WIGHT COUNCIL
First Draft
A Local Public Service
Agreement Between Isle of Wight
Council
And The Government
April 2003- March 2007
LOCAL PUBLIC SERVICE AGREEMENT
BETWEEN
Isle of Wight COUNCIL AND
THE GOVERNMENT
Introduction
1.
Isle of Wight Council and the
Government have made this Local Public Service Agreement (Local PSA) with the
intention of further improving the services to local people that the Isle of
Wight Council provides. This agreement
covers the period 1st April 2003 to 31st March 2007.
2.
The agreement records the
present intentions of the Council and the Government. It is entered into by both in good faith, but it is expressly
recognised that neither can fetter the future discretion of the Council or of
Ministers and Parliament. The agreement is therefore not intended to create
legal relations. Subject to that, the
following points are agreed.
The Intentions of the Isle of
Wight Council
3.
The Isle of Wight Council will
use its best endeavours to achieve more demanding performance targets than
those it would be expected to achieve in the absence of this Local Public
Service Agreement. These enhanced
targets are specified in Schedule 1 to this agreement.
The Intentions of the
Government
4.
The intentions of the Government set out in this
agreement are subject to the outcome of any statutory consultations and any
necessary approval of the Treasury and Parliament.
5.
The Government will implement
the changes to statutory and administrative requirements set out in Schedule 2
to this agreement, subject to confirmation of the legal and operational
feasibility of the changes described and to Parliamentary approval of any
necessary legislation. The Government will also undertake the discussions with
the Council described in Schedule 2.
6.
It is recognised by the Isle
of Wight Council that, on further investigation, it may be necessary to modify
the detail of the changes set out in Schedule 2 in ways that seek so far as
possible, to give substantially the same extent of benefit to the Council. It is recognised by the Government that, if
a change set out in Schedule 2 proves infeasible, it will use its best
endeavours to provide an alternative that corresponds as closely as possible
and has, so far as possible, substantially the same effect.
7.
The Government will pay the
Isle of Wight Council a grant of £875,000 in 2002/03 in support of the
expenditures described in Schedule 3 to this agreement. The conditions attached to this
“pump-priming” grant are also set out in Schedule 3.
8.
The Government will pay a
performance reward grant of £ 3,325,000 to the Isle of Wight Council, as set
out in Schedule 4 to this agreement, if it achieves
all the enhanced targets specified in
Schedule 1. Schedule 4 also sets out
the grant it intends to pay if the Council secures a substantial improvement in
performance that falls short of the target.
The Schedule also stipulates the intended timing of payments of the
grant. The Isle of Wight Council
undertakes to provide audited information confirming the extent of improvement
in its performance relative to the Local PSA performance targets set out in
Schedule 1, as a precondition for the determination and payment of the
performance reward grant.
