Quarterly performance reports
Each financial quarter the Council's Performance Reports are reviewed for each Department within the Council, and for the Council as a whole.
Annual Report
Every year an Annual Performance Review is undertaken by each service, this provides the mechanism to capture both our performance against our Corporate Outcomes (COs) and Indicators (COIs) and the success and challenges we have encountered in meeting these, and which data will ultimately feed into our Council Annual Report.
