The Corporate Improvement Plan 2007-10.

The following amendments apply.

Statement of contracts:

We can confirm that all individual contracts awarded during the past year which involved a transfer of staff, complied, where applicable, with the requirements in the Code of Practice on Workforce Matters in Local Authority Service Contracts [as well as with TUPE regulations as the plan states].

The following targets have been set since the Plan was published:

Notes:

BV84b based on targets for BV84a and new waste minimisation initiatives
BV86 target revised upwards to take account of cost of recycling
Baselines were required for environmental performance so future targets could be sufficiently challenging - this caused a delay
BV226 changed this year. Waiting on further guidance from DWP. Targets set to maintain current levels of spend

Community Safety

BV225 is being approached as a countywide initiative led by the newly formed Domestic Violence Task Group
