The Chief Executive presented the report which explained that the council currently had a collection of programmes of work, projects and specific actions which had been mapped under the definition of transformation. A review had been undertaken to provide clarity and a clear purpose for transformation going forwards. The report updated Cabinet with the proposals for implementing a structured framework and clear purpose for transformation, along with clearly defined outcomes.

Councillor de Whalley suggested that an additional theme be added on risk mitigation for climate and the environment.  This was supported.

Councillor Beales drew attention to the Corporate Performance Panel’s recommendation that rather than a proportionate number pf members be involved in the Transformation Programme Board it should be a representative number of interested members.  This was agreed.
