Action Plan We have aligned the LECP actions with The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as well as other national, regional and local plans. These actions will enable us to achieve better quality of life outcomes for all. The full action plan (in Appendix 1) lays out all 122 actions in a ‘SMART’ format – Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Time-bound . It details who is going to put actions in place, and when and how we can measure the success. It is crucial that each action has at least one lead organisation and a set of collaborating partners with the specialist skills, resources, and knowledge to deliver the action. Statement of Commitment to the Public Sector Equality and Human Rights Duty Cork City Council’s commitment to the Public Sector Duty on Equality and Human Rights threads through all the LECPs high-level goals. It is considered in each strategic objective, and it is visible throughout the action plan. The LECP Advisory Group and staff team ensured the Duty was highlighted in the public consultations and stakeholder meetings. How Will We Monitor Our Progress? The monitoring of progress is a crucial element of this LECP. We commit to authentic and transparent monitoring of our progress as laid out in Chapter 13 of this plan. Collaborative Monitoring Monitoring and evaluation will be led by the LCDC but done in collaboration with all implementing partners. It will be informed by the principle of respect for partners and their capacity to deliver on actions. Collaboration and co-operation are key components of delivering on the actions. Ongoing Monitoring Every year, the LCDC will hold a special meeting to review the progress of the LECP action plan. A full review will take place every two years over the course of the six-year plan. This review will invite all implementing partners and wider Cork City stakeholders to input. Goals and actions will be examined for relevance and achievement. Indicators will be quantified and reviewed if necessary. New actions will be considered. A revised action plan will be published in year 2 (2026) and year 4 (2028) of the plan. A final review will take place in 2030.
