The Chief Executive and Director of Customer and Community Services submitted a report summarising the Council’s achievements against its priorities for 2012/13 and those actions which had revised completion dates or had been suspended, the detail of which was set out in the report now submitted and supporting Essential Reference Papers.

The Corporate Planning and Performance Manager provided Members with a number of updates which had occurred since the agenda papers had been printed.
