Appendix 1
Feedback from Scrutiny and Performance Committee 31 January 2024 
Question asked/point raised Impact on CDIP
What does the information about the visitor spend/numbers in the baseline data
column mean against the improvement outcome of ‘more people to choose Perth
and Kinross as a destination for holidays and day trips’
Make clearer that this is the baseline against which improvement
will be measured. Definitions of measures provided to Scrutiny
and Performance Committee.
What percentage of under-22s does the 12,257 who held an NEC card in 2022/23
represent?
Figure updated to March 2024 stats and expressed as a
percentage of eligible under 22s. 
Number of community asset transfers is exactly the same as the number of
community groups apply for community asset transfers. Would expect baseline of
number of community asset transfers to be much lower than the number of groups
applying.
Updated in CDIP
Suggestion to change success measure for developing cash first partnerships
from number of established cash first partnerships to the number of people who
are helped by a cash first partnership.
Measure amended as suggested, however, as measurable
improvement will not take effect in 2024/25 this has been carried
forward to a future year’s improvement plan.
Suggestion that ‘increase in number of council vehicles with electric or other zero
direct carbon fuel technologies’ would be improved by a percentage or numerical
increase.
Target set in Fleet Decarbonisation Strategy approved by
Climate Change and Sustainability Committee in February 2024.
Improvement action updated in line with this.
For integrated active travel options into the development of large infrastructure
schemes the measure is achieve a 20% reduction in vehicle kilometres – is this
achievable in one year?
Measurement amended to reflect that the 20% target is by 2030
and is not an in-year target, however, as measurable
improvement will not take effect in 2024/25 this has been carried
forward to a future year’s improvement plan.
Should we be looking at a target for abuse of teachers? Advised at committee that this is already being measured and
monitored in other places, no change made to CDIP.
Schools will have robust procedures to reduce bullying in line with improving
relationships – for future can we have more objective measures. 
To be included as reporting on anti-bullying strategy. 
Affordable housing – should we be aiming to do more than maintain the 53%/47%
split across urban and rural areas?
Reason for split is that it reflects split of population in Perth and
Kinross as set out in Local Housing Strategy. No change made
to CDIP.
