To receive Report No. 138/2019 from the Chief Executive.

Report No. 138 was received from the Chief Executive, the purpose of which was to present the Rutland County Council Annual Report 2018/19 to Council and show how it will be used and distributed to highlight the impact the Council is making across the key service areas. The report also updates Council on the impact of the 2017/18 report and gives an introduction to the high level 2019/2024 Corporate Plan.

Mr Hemsley introduced and moved the recommendations in the report. Mr Oxley seconded the recommendations.

During debate the following points were raised:

      i.        Mr Oxley asked that a banner be placed on the website so the annual report could be easily accessible rather than having to search for it.

    ii.        Miss Waller asked that a large print copy of the report could be included on the website.

   iii.        Miss Waller expressed concern that the description of ‘outstanding schools’ in the introduction was misleading as it may be interpreted as ‘outstanding’ Ofsted results.

   iv.        The report had been circulated to all parishes.

RESOLVED

To ENDORSE the RCC Annual Report 2018-19.
