Report of the Managing Director

The Managing Director submitted a report (previously circulated) to provide an update on the current work programme for this Scrutiny Committee.

The work programme has been reviewed and revised for the Municipal Year 2019/20 and has been linked to performance indicators from the Performance Management Framework to provide robust and accurate data for Members to use when considering topics and the work they wish to undertake.

Discussion ensued in respect of baby groups in Darlington and it was suggested a quad of aims be completed to examine the provision of baby groups in Darlington and to carryout out a mapping exercise to identify any gaps; and to also examine what support is provided by the local authority to baby groups.

RESOLVED – That the current status of the work programme be noted.
