The North Yorkshire LAA 2008/2011 is effectively a 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.  It translates the ten priorities of the Sustainable Community Strategy into specific targets to achieve the improvements that local communities want to see.
 
The targets of the North Yorkshire LAA 2008/11 are focused on a limited set of designated targets, drawn from the National Indicator Set (NIS), 16 statutory education and early years targets prescribed by the Department for Children, Schools and Families and a number of local non-designated targets that have been drawn from the NIS or locally determined. The 19 ‘stretch’ targets included in the current NYLAA1 have all been transferred into the new LAA 2008/2011.
 
Please note that there are currently no printed hard copies of the LAA available.  The latest version of the LAA is available to download as above.

A Governance Document has been produced with the aim to highlight the statutory LAA process and to record the arrangements which govern the operation and management of the North Yorkshire LAA 2008-2011.
 
The Governance Document is a statement of good faith and not intended to create any legal partnership between the Partners. It records the agreed working arrangements between the different Partner organisations in relation to the North Yorkshire LAA 2008-11 process.
