Council Performance

Quarterly reports

Results show how we compare to other councils and where changes need to be made. This information is compiled in our quarterly reports and is discussed at cabinet meetings every quarter.

Our quarterly reports present a summary of the council's performance.

Annual reports

Statement of accounts

We produce a Statement of Accounts each year in accordance with legal requirements and the Accounting Code of Practice, which sets out our financial performance and spending for the year.

Data quality

We recognise the importance of having reliable information to deliver and manage services, inform users and improve performance. Good quality, accurate and timely data is essential to provide reliable performance and financial information to support decision-making at all levels. We are committed to high standards of data quality.

We take every care to ensure that the data and information used in performance management is accurate, valid, reliable, timely, relevant, secure, accessible and complete, in line with our Data quality policy (PDF, 402 KB).

Customer service charter and standards

We're committed to providing high standards of customer service. Our customer services strategy, charter and standards have been shaped through consultation with local people and we provide regular performance reports to show you how we're doing.
