Report of the Assistant Chief Executive

The contents of the report have been noted.

As the relevant Portfolio Holder, Councillor Brian Hoare presented the report to Cabinet.  He pointed out that it was not a direct carry-over from the previous year owing to a new set of national indicators meaning that there was no previous comparable data.  He asked for his colleagues to liaise closely with their directorates to address the red areas.  He conceded that some of the lower indicators were related to the economic downturn; however, he wanted to make sure that targets were reasonable and attainable. 

Councillor Church welcomed the figures on recycling, that he assumed were attributable to the newly implemented street glass collection.
