To receive a report on progress to date in developing the Cheshire and Warrington Improvement and Efficiency Partnership.

Report attached.

Consideration was given to a report on progress to date in developing the Cheshire and Warrington Improvement and Efficiency Partnership.  It was reported that as part of the new performance framework Central and Local Government had committed to building a new joint approach to supporting excellent and efficient performance by local authorities and their partners through the development of a National Improvement and Efficiency Strategy.  In the North West this would primarily be through five sub-regional partnerships and the progress of developing these was reported including the financial and governance arrangements.

RESOLVED

That the report be noted.
