Report by the Head of Policy, Performance and Corporate Business

Management.

Councillor John Brady, Cabinet member for Finance, Performance and Risk, introduced the report which provided a summary of progress against Wiltshire Council’s Business Plan for the second quarter of 2012/13.

In relation to the Help to live at Home initiative, it was noted that the number of older people in Wiltshire who had been admitted to care homes in 2011/12 was 575, compared to 590 in 2010/11.  These figures compared favourably to adjoining authorities and the national average, and showed that the initiative was delivering real benefits in terms of supporting older people to remain in their own homes.

Resolved:

That the progress against the Business Plan be noted.
