He leads the Wales Audit Office and is held accountable by the Public Accounts Committee of the National Assembly for the Wales Audit Office’s work. The Auditor General is the external auditor of the Welsh Government and its sponsored and related public bodies, the Assembly Commission and National Health Service bodies in Wales. He also appoints the external auditors of Welsh local government bodies, including unitary authorities, police, probation, fire and rescue authorities, national parks and community Councils. The Auditor General’s appointed auditors are responsible for the annual audit of the majority of public money spent in Wales, including the £15 billion of funds that are voted to Wales annually by the Westminster Parliament. Nearly £5.5 billion of this funding is passed by the Welsh Government to local government in the form of general and specific grants. Local government, in turn, raises a further £2.1 billion through Council tax and business rates. As well as carrying out financial audit, the Auditor General’s role is to examine how public bodies manage and spend public money, including achieving value in the delivery of public services. The Wales Audit Office aims to make public money count, by promoting improvement, so that people in Wales benefit from accountable, well-managed public services that offer the best possible value for money. It is also committed to identifying and spreading good practice across the Welsh public sector. Huw Vaughan Thomas, Auditor General for Wales, was supported by Steve Barry, Janet Villars and colleagues under the direction of Jane Holownia in conducting the Improvement Assessment and producing this report. 2 Annual Improvement Report - Cardiff Council Contents Summary and proposals for improvement 4 Detailed report Introduction 7 The Council’s political and streamlined officer leadership is driving efficiencies through strong financial leadership, improved management of people and assets and through the good use of technology 9 Improvements are emerging in waste, highways, and neighbourhood management, the Council is on track to meet the Welsh Housing Quality Standard but weaknesses in some aspects of social services and education are delaying the achievement of Council aims 13 Weaknesses in some aspects of social services mean that the Council is not fully meeting its aim for people in Cardiff to be safe and feel safe 13 Weaknesses in some aspects of education mean that the Council is not fully meeting its aim for people in Cardiff to achieve their full potential 15 The Council is helping to provide a clean, attractive and sustainable environment by delivering the Welsh Housing Quality Standard, beginning the improvement of highways maintenance and through improvements in waste management 17 Significant progress has been made in establishing strong partnerships to support improvement of service delivery to neighbourhoods 19 The Council has good arrangements for monitoring performance and is making progress in developing the ways it evaluates the impact of what it is doing 22 Appendices Appendix 1 Status of this report 23 Appendix 2 Useful information about Cardiff and Cardiff Council 24 Appendix 3 Cardiff Council’s accounts and use of resources 26 Appendix 4 Cardiff Council’s improvement objectives and self-assessment 29 3 Annual Improvement Report - Cardiff Council Summary report 1 Each year, the Auditor General must report on • Weaknesses in some aspects of education how well Welsh councils, fire and rescue mean that the Council is not fully meeting authorities, and national parks are planning its aim for people in Cardiff to achieve their for improvement and delivering their services. full potential, although an inspection by Drawing on the work of the relevant Welsh Estyn in January 2011 judged the inspectorates, and the audit work of the education service to be ‘adequate’.

P2 For education • Implementing the Estyn recommendations arising from the inspection of the education service. P3 For the highways service • Ensure member endorsement of highway standards and implement work to develop and achieve those standards. • Identify responsibility for the management, operation and improvement of the highways asset (an ‘asset owner’) at senior management level and introduce consideration of consistent standards and future maintenance costs into decision making. P4 For the waste management service • Develop waste prevention initiatives and actions to support the Council’s waste strategy. • Work in partnership with communities to support delivery of the waste strategy. • Establish a clear understanding with the Welsh Government about the main components of a longer-term waste strategy for Cardiff for the next 10 years. 5 Annual Improvement Report - Cardiff Council Proposals for improvement (continued) P5 For neighbourhood management • Further develop the arrangements for performance monitoring and reporting for neighbourhoods to ensure that the Integrated Partnership Board and the Programme Board have the evidence to both monitor delivery of actions but also assess if improved outcomes for citizens/the public have been delivered: ‒ complete and implement the 2011-12 Annual Action Plans; ‒ ensure that Annual Action Plans for 2012-13 are produced and ready for the start of the financial year; and ‒ complete Annual Reports for 2011-12 for each neighbourhood. • Ensure that Service Redesign projects across the Council consider the resource requirements and implications of working with the Neighbourhood Management Delivery Model adopted by the Council and Partners. • Ensure managers responsible for service delivery understand the concept of neighbourhood management, collaborative working and how their service can respond to the agenda. • Ensure that staff within the Council know about the Neighbourhood Management Delivery Model adopted by the Council and Partners and that they understand the role they play in its implementation. 6 Annual Improvement Report - Cardiff Council Detailed report Introduction 5 This report was prepared by the Wales Audit • make proposals for improvement – if we Office on behalf of the Auditor General. make proposals to the Council, we would On page 2 you can find a brief explanation of expect it to do something about them and what the Auditor General does. we will follow up what happens. 6 Under the Local Government (Wales) 8 We want to find out if this report gives you the Measure 2009 (the Measure), the Auditor information you need and whether it is easy to General must report each year on how well understand.
