Local Area Agreement
Local Area Agreement
Local Area Agreements are no longer in place. Further information about future partnership performance monitoring will be posted as it is developed.
The North Yorkshire Local Area Agreement (LAA) was the three year 'deal' between
the main public sector agencies in the area, other partners and central Government
to improve services and the quality of life in North Yorkshire.
The Sustainable Community Strategy (SCS) for North Yorkshire 2008/18 sets out
the overarching strategic direction and long-term, sustainable vision for the
economic, social and environmental well-being of North Yorkshire. It is based
on consultation with local people, about the sort of place they want the area
to be and has been developed by the North Yorkshire Strategic Partnership (NYSP).
The LAA was based on the priorities in this Strategy and translated these priorities
into targets to secure the improvements that local people want to see. As such,
the LAA was the delivery mechanism for the SCS.
The targets in the North Yorkshire LAA 2008/11 were focused on a limited set
of designated targets, drawn from the National Indicator Set (NIS), 10 statutory
education and early years targets prescribed by the Department for Children, Schools
and Families and a number of local non-designated targets that were drawn from
the NIS or locally determined.
Local partners (members of the NYSP) committed themselves to delivering these
targets under their new duty to co-operate (Local Government and Public Involvment
in Health Act 2007).
