Liverpool City Council - Leading liverpool


 

Leading Liverpool

This, our corporate performance plan 2006/09, sets out the high-level priorities that will focus and steer our work over the next three years. These priorities state the ambitions against which the council's leadership, both members and officers, will be judged and will direct the financial strategy and spending of the authority.

Integrating national and local priorities

The improvement agenda presented in this plans is drawn from:

  • national local government service agreements established by the Government
  • priorities outlined in the city's community strategy, Liverpool First 2005/08, produced by the Liverpool Partnership Group, which represents public, private and voluntary agencies across the city
  • improvement priorities identified in recent inspections including: the comprehensive performance assessment  published by the Audit Commission in December 2005 
  • the annual audit letter (PDF [264.9Kb] opens in new window) and individual service inspections        

Review and update

During the year we will work with members to review and update the specific measures to take forward our priorities. This work will proceed in parallel with that of our three-year financial strategy so that for next year we expect to publish an integrated performance and financial plan.

Letting service contracts 

In letting service contracts involving the transfer of staff over the last year, the council has complied with all the relevant statutory and other legal requirements relating to such transfers, including the Code of Practice on Workforce Matters in Local Authority Service Contracts.
