Item 14 - Commissioning Performance Management Framework: Grants Committee Reporting Plan 2017-18 (G12/17)

Summary    

At its meeting on 8 February 2017, members of the Grants Committee agreed a revised Commissioning Performance Management Framework. The framework sets out how the 2017-21 Grants Programme will be managed to ensure it meets the principles of the programme, delivers value for money and reflects the needs of boroughs. The framework relates to all three Grants Programme priorities: 
    Priority 1: Combatting Homelessness
    Priority 2: Tackling Sexual and Domestic Violence
The third priority - Priority 3: Tackling Poverty through Employment - is managed following European Social Fund requirements. However, the principles of the framework and the majority of the processes outlined in the framework are the same for all the priorities, including performance monitoring and reporting to the Grants Committee. For Priority 3 this includes reporting against the agreed outcome targets for each borough.
This report provides further information on the framework in terms of the planned reporting to Grants Committee and other ways in which officers will ensure borough input and oversight.
