Freedom of information class: How we deliver functions and services

An update on our key performance indicators for the third quarter of 2020.

In our Corporate Business Plan 2020-2025 we outlined our four strategic objectives and identified a series of key performance indicators (KPIs) that would act as targets to ensure we achieve them.

We are committed to being transparent and will be sharing our progress against our KPIs outlining what the target is and when it is due to be achieved on a quarterly basis.

All of the following targets were set as part of our corporate planning progress and agreed before the COVID-19 pandemic.

Objective one: Complete Scotland's land register by 2024

Our aim is to reach 50% of land mass on the register by March 2021.

We will do this by clearing the arrear and completing all public sector registration where detail is provided.

We aim to clear the arrear by ensuring we process all new applications within service standard while implementing smarter ways of working.
