The Commission received a report on the results of the Residents’ Survey 2014. The survey looked at the impact of the last two to three years on residents and the good results from the survey were encouraging.
QA Research had conducted the survey, as they had done for the last survey in 2012. There was a high rate of return and the methodology had been reviewed this time for a representative sample of people in the borough. The 2014 survey was based on the 2012 survey so that comparisons could be made and trends tracked. The Black Minority Ethnic groups were under represented so face to face surveys were undertaken with these groups. The results were detailed in Annex 1 of the report and the differences in responses were analysed. The covering report included the key findings from the survey which showed strong community cohesion. Measures were positively linked with satisfaction in the area.
There was a Member Briefing Seminar on Monday 16 March 2015 to discuss the results of the survey.
In response to Members’ questions, the following points were made:
The Chairman suggested that further work could be undertaken in the area of dissatisfaction levels in the borough at a relevant point in the future.
