Agenda item

The Committee considered a report of the Corporate Management Team which presented progress towards achieving the key outcomes of the Council’s corporate performance framework for the Altogether Better for Children and Young People priority theme for the first quarter of the 2018/19 financial year (for copy see file of minutes).

In relation to the casefile audit programme for social work, Councillor Durham queried why it had been suspended and if it would be reinstated.  The Corporate Equality and Strategy Manager advised that the casefile audit had been postponed while the service went through a restructure and until the results of JTAI were received.

Ms Evans stated that it was great to see families in receipt of universal services being well supported, but due to budget restraints, many services in rural areas had been reduced and could impact on targeted and specialist services.

Resolved:

That the report be noted.
