1.3 New Performance Measurement Framework for local government in Wales.
This consultation is the result of the review of performance measurement
carried out by the Local Government Data Unit, on behalf of the Welsh
Assembly Government.  The framework and proposed core performance indicators
contained in this consultation have been developed jointly by the key
agencies in Wales including; local authorities, Welsh Local Government
Association, the Data Unit, regulators and Welsh Assembly Government policy
directorates.  The framework signifies a change in approach to performance
measurement in Wales, and emphasises ownership and the effective use of
performance information in the management of services.  

The consultation is set out in the attached document, to help facilitate
dissemination within organisations and to allow easy navigation through the
different aspects of the framework.   To further assist dissemination, this
information is available on the Data Unit's website
(<http://www.dataunitwales.gov.uk>) and on the Assembly Government's website

we suggest that you use this as a basis for your own policy. It is also
available as a downloadable Word document on the MLA website at

Broadband Support Scheme - 27 September 2005
As part of the Broadband Wales Programme, this scheme provides a subsidy for
a broadband connection from a range of technologies including xDSL, Cable,
wireless and Satellite. 

This support will effectively reduce the cost of broadband, thus ensuring a
level playing field on which Welsh businesses can compete. The subsidy is
restricted to one per organisation for all eligible forms of connectivity to
a maximum value of £3,000 or 50 per cent of the total cost, whichever is the
lesser. The scheme is open to all small and medium-sized enterprises and
voluntary sector organisations located in Wales. There is also a "Try Before
You Buy" service that enables organisations to receive a demonstration of
Broadband and discuss requirements. Applications can be made at any time.
Details are available from www.wda.co.uk/broadband
