The Senior Policy and Performance Officer presented the report which contained information on the corporate performance monitoring undertaken during 2019-2020.

The Chair thanked the Senior Policy and Performance Officer for the report, and invited questions and comments from the Panel, as summarised below.

The Senior Policy and Performance Officer was asked if the long waiting list for Disabled Facilities Grants was because of a lack of resources and if additional resources were required and if there were additional figures available on Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMO’s).  The Senior Policy and Performance Officer agreed to provide the Panel with more information on the amount of HMO’s in the Borough and how many were licensed.

It was also suggested that an update on HMO’s  be added to the Panels Work Programme.

Questions were asked about the amount of brown bins and it was explained that the targets were for the year 2019/2020, so did not cover the Covid-19 pandemic period.  It was explained that there had been an increase in the amount of brown bins requested and there had also been a problem with the software used previously, which had resulted in some incorrect figures being reported.

RESOLVED: The Panel reviewed the performance monitoring report and agreed the actions outlined in the Action Report.
