The HA has developed a range of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to help evaluate and monitor our performance in implementing the key programmes and activities. We have critically examined the appropriateness of the KPIs adopted in the previous years in the light of the new housing policy framework. For 2004 / 2005, we have decided to adopt 16 KPIs. Their targets and past performance are set out below.
