As an organisation, we must regularly take stock and review whether we are making progress towards delivering our strategic aims. Measuring performance helps inform Ministers and their advisers about key trends, indicating whether their policies are effective and resources properly allocated. Informed decisions can then be made about any necessary adjustments to keep the Island on course through the annual business planning process. This joined up approach contributes to the transparency and accountability of government. The ability to track year‐on‐year the Island’s strategic social, economic and environmental indicators, and to monitor the progress of States departments in delivering the objectives agreed by the States, is important. It shows that, as an organisation, we regularly take stock and review whether we are making progress towards delivering our strategic aims. Not only does the Annual Performance Report give an overview of such progress, it also provides a long term insight into the impact of policy decisions and the efficiency and effectiveness of the services implementing them. The Annual Performance Report is intended to keep the States and the public of Jersey fully informed about year‐ on‐year progress towards delivering the commitments set out in the Strategic Plan and the objectives agreed by the States in the Annual Business Plan. It provides a summary of performance across government departments. We hope the report is useful to Scrutiny in holding the Executive to account, and to Islanders in assessing the value of public services. Senator Terry Le Sueur Page 2 INTRODUCTION In June 2006, the States approved the Strategic Plan 2006 to 2011 which set the framework for the development of public policy for Jersey for the following five years and beyond, including the indicators which the States believed would measure the success of the Plan. When presenting the Plan to the States, the Council of Ministers also undertook to report back each year with an Annual Performance Report. The 2008 Annual Performance Report is the second such report to be produced and reports performance against the indicators published in the Strategic Plan 2006 to 2011 and the 2008 Annual Business Plan. Providing a concise yet balanced insight into performance across a broad range of economic, environmental and social objectives represents a significant challenge. The majority of indicators used are recognised as standard service indicators and have been drawn from a wide variety of sources – UK Audit Commission, National Audit Office, best practice service reports, previous benchmarking reports etc. – so that they can be benchmarked with other authorities if required. Others are ‘Jersey specific’ in that they have been designed to measure the performance of specific policies. Monitoring performance is a continuous process inbuilt into the day to day management of services. The format of the 2007 Annual Performance Report has been retained for 2008. Earlier this year, the States approved the new Strategic Plan. This will require a review and refinement of the indicators for the 2009 report to ensure that they properly reflect the revised priorities and objectives. HOW THIS REPORT IS STRUCTURED The report closely follows the format of the last Strategic Plan. The main body of the document reports on performance against the indicators approved by the States for each of the Strategic Plan commitments. The Annex relates to strategic objective 6.2 ‐ “Public Services that are recognised as efficiently and effectively meeting people’s needs” ‐ and provides an update on progress against each of the departmental key objectives agreed by the States in the 2008 Annual Business Plan. It also reports at departmental level on the detailed service efficiency and effectiveness indicators also set out in the 2008 Annual Business Plan. Progress reports against each of the individual initiatives/projects set out in the Strategic Plan have previously been published at six monthly intervals. Performance in 2008 has, where possible, been set in the context of performance from previous years. In all cases the most recent data available at the time of production has been used. In some cases this will be data for 2007 (or earlier) where 2008 data is not yet available; and where we have relied on surveys, the data will reflect the most recent survey undertaken and will set the baseline. Coloured indicators show an assessment of the current position against each of the indicators as follows: on track slightly off track cause for concern Where possible we have relied on the independent Statistics Unit for data, and some of the graphs and figures used for the performance indicators will have been previously published by them as key statistical data. This report attempts to set them in the context of the Strategic Plan.
