To consider and approve the Executive Summaries of the business plans for the ICT, Legal and Building Control Shared Services for the period 2016/17.

That the Executive Summary Business Plans, subject to any minor editorial changes which shall be delegated to the Corporate Director (Services) in consultation with the Executive Councillor for Strategic Partnerships, be approved.

The Cabinet considered a report by the Corporate Director (Services) (a copy of which is appended in the Minute Book) regarding the Executive Summaries of the business plans for the ICT, Legal and Building Control Shared Services for the period 2016/17.

Having considered the Business Plans for the 3C shared services at the meeting on 21 April 2016 the Cabinet requested that a more focused form of document, without deviating from the overarching business principles, be presented to the June Cabinet meeting.

It was explained to the Cabinet that the main business objectives of the Shared Services had been retained in more streamlined and focused documents.  

In considering the Executive Summaries, the Cabinet suggested that a uniformed approach in the form of key performance indicators was required to measure the success of the shared service, which it was hoped would materialise over the coming months. Having expressed support for the Executive Summaries and requesting that an update report on 3C Shared Service Business Plans for ICT, Legal and Building Control be presented in six months, the Cabinet,

RESOLVED

that the Executive Summary Business Plans, subject to any minor editorial changes which shall be delegated to the Corporate Director (Services) in consultation with the Executive Councillor for Strategic Partnerships, be approved.
