Local Area Agreement
Like all the other Local Strategic Partnerships (LSPs) One Nottingham is in the process of negotiating its Local Area Agreement (LAA). The LAA is an agreement
between the LSP and Government about the priorities for the city. Having agreed the priorities and set targets
that will be the way Government measures the success of the city (and there's money to incentivise it).
The indicators for the LAA are selected from what's known as the National Indicator Set - a list of 198 priorities
each LSP can pick from. LSPs are allowed to pick up to 35 indicators, plus a required 17 which focus on
children. Nottingham has got very close to
deciding its list of priorities. It now has to negotiate with Government what the targets will be.
Groups should be starting to think about how their work is relevant to the LAA priorities.
They should also be keeping an eye open for opportunities to deliver new services as One Nottingham starts
to commission new work. But don't get over excited. We're not expecting a lot of new work to be commissioned
through ON this year that we don't already know about.

Indicators (including the ones Nottingham
didn't pick) here: http://digbig.com/4wrts
