As part of the Comprehensive Performance Assessment (CPA) process
for local authorities an annual update on progress is supplied to
the Audit Commission.
The document describes the improvements made by the Council over
the previous twelve months in the areas covered by the CPA format.
This report is known as the Direction Travel Statement.
The Direction of Travel Statement is produced to:
- assess the Council's track record of achievement of
outcomes during the last year
- assess the robustness and delivery of improvement
plans
- helps the Council maintain momentum and focus in delivering
improvement priorities
The Audit Commission challenges the statements made, seeks
evidence to back up what has been said, and then gives an opinion
on it in the annual Auditor's Letter.
