The Local Area Agreement (LAA) is a three year agreement between Norfolk and central government, to deliver improved outcomes across a range of priorities.
The LAA is essentially a performance management framework; a series of outcomes, measures, baselines and targets. It is the delivery plan for Norfolk Ambition, the county's sustainable community strategy.

We also received some information from GO East showing that we have successfully disaggregated more targets than any other county. Our indicator leads worked very hard to achieve this and we will continue to work with partners to disaggregate the remaining targets. This will provide us with valuable performance data for the whole county and enable us to focus our delivery effectively.

- How will it be calculated for each area
