Annual Monitoring Report
The Yorkshire and Humber Regional Spatial Strategy is evaluated through the Annual Monitoring Report (AMR). The AMR reports change in the Yorkshire and Humber region against indicators set out in the Regional Spatial Strategy (RSS) in order to analyse the extent to which the objectives of the RSS are being met.
The Annual Monitoring Report is produced following guidelines set out by the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister (ODPM) (now Communities and Local Government). A PDF version of these guidelines can be found below. The Annual Monitoring Report must also report against a set of Core Indicators, as defined by ODPM (now CLG). A PDF description of these indicators can be found below.
AMR 2009
The Annual Monitoring Report for 2009 (AMR2009) has been produced by Local Government Yorkshire and Humber as the Regional Planning Body, in accordance with the requirements of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004. It monitors the policies set out in The Yorkshire and Humber Plan - the Regional Spatial Strategy to 2026. It presents the findings of the 2009 Annual Monitoring Cycle for the Yorkshire and Humber Region. The Monitoring Cycle covers the period 1 April 2008 to 31 March 2009.
The re-organisation of the former regional bodies into Local Government Yorkshire & Humber, Yorkshire Forward and Yorkshire Futures in April 2009 led to greater joint working and the Region. This year’s AMR concentrates on reporting performance around the spatial planning priorities of housing, economy, environment and transport while much of the contextual information in the Regional Spatial Strategy i.e. population statistics and performance against the quality of life outcomes is reported in Progress in the Region (PiR), the annual report on the overall performance of the Region, produced by Yorkshire Futures.
