What does the Corporate Plan cover?

The Corporate Plan is published in two parts and provides a clear statement of the Council's priorities and objectives.

Part 1 of the Corporate Plan provides an overview of the Council's direction and specific improvement priorities, and how they contribute to the Community Strategy aims. We explain why we have identified these improvement priorities, the key measures of success and how we will focus on to deliver them.

Part 2 of the Corporate Plan is the Council's annual Performance Plan. It sets out our detailed performance against the Council's corporate performance measures, looking at past performance and future targets. The 2008/11 Corporate Plan Part 2 is, in accordance with Government guidelines, our annual Best Value Performance Plan.
