Performance statistics: monitoring guidelines for local authorities LATEST DETAILS

These documents are discussion drafts of a monitoring framework to replace Best Value Performance Indicator 64.  The first draft (May 2009) has now been updated (July/August 2009).  The previous versions are available in the Library.  There is no longer a separate summary document - the structure of the main Guidelines has been revised.  The substance is pretty much the same except that interventions that consist of rent / deposit guarantees or rent-in-advance are segregated out into a separate category (agreed at the Exec meeting in June).

Conference Latest

We are close to booking an important additional session.  We've invited the Audit Commission to give a presentation on their evaluation of local authorities' empty homes work.  We hope to confirm that by the end of the week.  This may encourage senior managers to ransack their over-stretched budgets to let you go. Or even go themselves.  Hopefully as well as, not instead of.

Meantime, some people want to know about the venue and hotels.  The conference isn't being held in a hotel this time.  It's at the Studio.  Here's the link if you want to check it out.
