Report number SD6 by the Strategic Director.          (Enclosure)

[The Draft Corporate Plan document is circulated as a

separate enclosure.]

DECISION:

1   That the Council approves the Draft Corporate Plan for 2006/2009;

2        The Council agrees that any further minor contextual amendments to the plan be delegated to the Chief Executive in consultation with the Leader prior to publication;

3        That photographs of the Leader and Chief Executive be included in the introduction.

The Council had before them report SD6 of the Strategic Director (B Agass) on the Council’s Corporate Plan for 2006/2009. The Council now had more freedom and flexibility to undertake their corporate planning and reporting more in line with their organisational need.  The Corporate Plan was a high level document from which anyone visiting the district for the first time could see key facts about:-

·          The make-up of the district

·          The organisation and how we work

·          Highlights of what has been achieved by the Council to date

·          How we have set about agreeing our priorities

·          What we plan to do to deliver our priorities

Councillor Carpenter confirmed that the Corporate Plan had been produced on recycled paper.

The motion was duly moved, seconded and carried.
