Councillor Pavey (Deputy Leader) introduced the performance report for Quarter 1 and 2, the purpose of which was to provide Cabinet with a corporate overview of performance information linked to the current priorities for Brent, to support informed decision-making, and to manage performance effectively. He drew attention to the revised format, and Cabinet members in turn addressed the areas of improved performance and those below and under target in their respective service areas. Councillor Pavey responded to the view put by Councillor Warren on whether the targets in the new format were sufficiently challenging and commenting on areas of concern including landfill and complaints, stating that the format had been revised to make it more accessible and Cabinet members would be monitoring closely. The Cabinet noted that the Chief Executive would be writing to the Chair of Brent Housing Partnership over the service’s performance.

RESOLVED:

(i)         that the performance information contained in this report be noted and agreement given to remedial actions as necessary;

(ii)        that the current and future strategic risks associated with the information provided be noted and agreement given to remedial actions as appropriate.
