Corporate Scorecard Pack: UK Environment Agency Performance Against Targets

The Environment Agency's corporate scorecard provides a high-level overview of performance against environmental and business aims. It is reported every 3 months to executive directors, the board, Defra, and the public on GOV.UK. For each measure, it shows current performance and whether the agency is on track to achieve its annual target.
