The local outcomes which we expect to deliver against in each of the fifteen national outcomes now need to be cascaded throughout the Council.Service Improvement Plans should be directly linked to the delivery of the local outcomes. Every local outcome will have at least one service area/activity contributing staff time and resources towards its delivery.
The outcomes have been set for the period of this government although it is expected that they will be reviewed on an annual basis. It must also be recognised that 2008-09 is viewed as a transitional year and that there will be an opportunity to review and refine the document over the course of this year.
In any one particular year, there will be a need to focus work and prioritise resources for particular areas. This means identifying outcomes which are particularly important to the Council and its partners and where action can be taken that will make a significant difference to the quality of life of communities in Moray. Achieving this focus will be especially important given the Council’s limited resources both in financial terms and in terms of staff time. Where a choice arises, resources should be allocated to the high priority areas.
To assist staff in delivering against the outcomes and understanding their role in the new way of working, the Council has Corporate Governance standards and Management Standards.
