The report of the Head of Partnership

Mrs S O’Hanlon presented the report to Members. She advised Members that the priorities for NWL were incorrect but would be changed following approval by the Council. She outlined the plan and that Universal Credit was number one for the Partnership, along with some of the other key projects including e-claims, telephone system and upgrades to ICT systems.

Mrs S O’Hanlon sought approval from the Committee to review the targets once the outturn of the year was available to see if targets need to be changed.

Members were happy that the targets were reviewed following the outturn and that the indicators would be brought back to the next meeting.

A discussion was held around the future/possible extension of the partnership. It was agreed that discussion paper be brought to the next meeting to gage an understanding of what elected members would like. For example having a new full partner or to sell services.  Accepting that one LA had already made approaches re the possibility of becoming a partner.  This work should continue with SOH speaking with AW around finance,  subject to his commitments around budget setting

RESOLVED THAT:

The Service Plan 2019/2020 be noted.
