WEST DUNBARTONSHIRE COUNCIL 
Report by Manager – Economic Development, Regulatory & Regeneration 
Committee: Infrastructure, Regeneration and Economic Development 
17 August 2022 
Subject: Economic Development Elements of the Regulatory & Regeneration
(R&R) Delivery Plan 2021/22 - Year-end Progress 
1 Purpose 
1.1 This report provides members with the year-end progress of the Economic
Development elements of the R&R 2021/22 Delivery Plan as agreed at
Committee on 12 May 2021. 
2 Recommendations 
2.1 It is recommended that Committee 
• Notes progress made on the delivery of the 2021/22 plan. 
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 committee twice yearly, at mid-year and year-end. 
4 Main Issues 
4.1 The Economic Development elements of the Delivery Plan were presented to
Infrastructure, Regeneration and Economic Development (IRED) Committee
on 12 May 2021 and mid-year progress on 17 November 2021. 
4.2 The Delivery Plan for 2021/22 was supported by an action plan to be
delivered over the year. Appendix 1 sets out the progress of that plan in detail
and shows that all 6 actions were completed by year-end. 
4.3 Year-end values are available for 2 of the 5 PIs in the plan, with one PI
meeting target and the other narrowly missing target. Full details are set out in
Appendix 1. The full set of PIs will be reported through the Council’s annual
performance reporting process once all data becomes available.
