RMB Business Plan launched
The aim of the Business Plan is to set out how the RMB will meet the expectations of the government, over the period 2007/10, and the improvements or efficiencies projects will deliver. It represents a challenging programme of activity for the year which will drive the region forward. The Board has also taken the opportunity to set for the public and our stakeholders clear priorities for the coming years. These are the projects which are critical to the success of the Board, and will require all constituent authorities to continue to work together to achieve them.
Our priorities are:
maintain the individual accountability of constituent Fire and Rescue Authorities, and their ability to meet local risks through Integrated Risk Management Plans; continue to support the management of the transition from local to regional control centres and transfers arrangements for control staff as far as is reasonably practicable; raise the profile of the Regional Management Board to ensure that it is positioned to access funding available at a regional and sub-regional level; harness the work of the procurement work stream to drive efficiency across the region in procurement and shared services; and improve the region’s performance against the equality standard for local government by December 2008 to level 3.
