Comprehensive
Performance Assessment (CPA)
|
To
authorise the Leader, Deputy Leader, Chairman of the Overview and
Scrutiny Management Board, Opposition
Leaders and Chief Executive to formally sign off our corporate
self-assessment on 17 July.
|
Part
of the CPA involves the completion of a corporate self-assessment.
Because
of annual leave commitments and printing time the corporate
self-assessment will need to be signed off on 17 July.
The Audit Commission CPA Guidance requires that the final version
of the corporate self-assessment is signed off by the Leader and Chief
Executive.
In
keeping with One Council, One Vision it is suggested that the signing
off is widened to include the Deputy Leader, Chairman of the Overview
and Scrutiny Management Board, and Opposition Leaders.
