Each year, LSPs are expected to review their performance in ways which meet core requirements for a Performance Management Framework (PMF) set down by the NRU.  They are also expected to assess their effectiveness as a partnership at least every three years.
 
The main purpose of the PMF is to provide evidence of how the LSP is achieving better outcomes for local people and help identify what needs to be done to improve performance.  It is about:
 
  • ensuring progress against national floor targets and local targets set out in the Community Strategy/ Local Neighbourhood Renewal Strategy
 
  • measuring progress in narrowing the gap locally between the most deprived neighbourhoods/ communities and the rest of the area
 
  • prioritising what gets done and making sure there are enough resources to do it
 
  • ensuring the LSP is adding value and delivering real improvements
 
  • motivating partners and working constructively together
 
  • ensuring that community participation, diversity and race equality are integral to the delivery of outcomes
 
 
'Traffic-Light' Assessments
 
For the first time, the ODPM has published a table showing the outcome of the 'traffic-light' assessments of LSPs in areas in receipt of neighbourhood renewal funding.  The table can be found at http://www.neighbourhood.gov.uk/publications.asp?did=1712  As reported in the local government press, ODPM has decided to withhold 10% of the original indicative NRF allocation from 3 areas where LSPs are 'traffic-lighted' as amber/red and where requirements for NRF are not felt to have been met.  These are Birmingham, Kingston on Hull, and Nottingham.
