3 Background
3.1 In line with the Strategic Planning & Performance Framework each Chief
Officer develops an annual Delivery Plan which sets out actions to help deliver
the Strategic Plan and address the performance challenges and service
priorities identified in the planning process. The Plan also provides an
overview of services and resources, including employees and budgets, sets
out the performance indicators (PIs) for monitoring progress and considers the
relevant risks.
3.2 Progress is reported to this Committee at year end for the first time. Progress
at mid year was reported to IRED Committee as part of the wider SD&P
delivery Plan.  
4. Main Issues
4.1 The 2021/22 SD&P Delivery Plan was presented to IRED Committee on 12
May 2021 and mid-year progress reported on 17 November 2021.
4.2 The Delivery Plan for 2021/22 was supported by an action plan of activities to
be delivered over the year. Appendix 1 details the progress on delivery of this
action plan.
4.3 All of the seven actions have been completed in year as planned.
4.4 Year end values are available for all seven PIs set out in the plan, one met or

the level of service that users and stakeholders can expect to receive, and
remind both the organisation and employees of the challenges and obligations
they face in delivering best value services. Of the two PIs measuring quality
standards, both were further adrift of targets (red). Full details are set out in
