The following points were made

quarter three (October to December) of the 2011/12 financial
year:
- Members were pleased
to see that individuals who breached HMO Management Regulations
were now being prosecuted.
- It was reported that
this report was intended to pull together overall key issues from
all departments and provide an overview. The report was considered
by management teams, the Executive, Overview and Scrutiny as well
as being published on the website.
- The Director of
Corporate Services and the Assistant Chief Executive stated that
they were happy to answer any questions from members around
performance reports as soon as they were published.
- Members asked that
future reports of crime figures should make it clear that they were
recorded crimes.
- The Assistant Chief
Executive acknowledged that performance around anti-social
behaviour was slightly lower, and summarised the work of the
Council and its partners to tackle ASB.
It was noted that an Anti-Social Behaviour Co-ordinator had been
reappointed.
- Members expressed
concern around the performance of schools as detailed in paragraph
3.4 of the report, despite the presence of School Improvement
Officers. The Chairman asked that the concerns of the Commission be
conveyed to the Director of Children, Young People and Learning
around this. The Chairman also asked to be informed of how many
School Improvement Officers were currently employed in the Borough
and a summary of their responsibilities.
- Members requested an
explanation for underperformance on indicator NI103.2 (SEN
Statements)
- Members asked to be
informed of the outcome of consideration of using E+ Cards in pay
and display (car park) machines.
- It was noted that the
rise in the number of Child Protection Plans was not necessarily a
negative development; it was possible that more vulnerable children
were being reported and monitored than previously.
