Social Services Annual Report

There is a statutory requirement for every local authority to produce an annual report on the discharge of its social services functions and the report must include:

  • an evaluation of performance in delivering social services functions for the past year including lessons learned;
  • how the local authority has achieved the six quality standards for well-being outcomes;
  • qualitative and quantitative data relating to the achievement of well-being outcomes;
  • the extent to which the local authority has met the requirements assessing and meeting needs;
  • objectives for promoting the well-being of people needing care and support and carers needing support for the following year including those identified by population needs assessments;
  • the local authority鈥檚 performance in handling and investigating complaints;
  • responses to any inspections of its social services functions;
  • an update on Welsh language provision; and
  • how the local authority has engaged people (including children) in the production of the report.

The report also needs to show assurances concerning:

  • structural arrangements enabling good governance and strong accountability;
  • effective partnership working via Partnership Boards; and
  • safeguarding arrangements.

The report cannot cover every aspect of what the local authority is doing in its social services and related functions. Instead it highlights priority areas for improving outcomes and improvement in performance linked to the six quality standards. The key issue is 鈥渨hat were the outcomes for people?鈥�
