COFFS HARBOUR CITY COUNCILDRAFT <strong>2013</strong>-<strong>2014</strong> OPERATIONAL PLANADOPTED ON 11 APRIL <strong>2013</strong>0302COFFS HARBOURHelping to achieve the 2030 Community Vision


Integrated Planning and Reporting – the Operational PlanThe Delivery Program and Operational Plan have been prepared by Coffs Harbour City Council under Integrated Planning and Reporting (IPR)laws enacted by the NSW Government in October 2009.The IPR framework was developed to improve all NSW <strong>council</strong>s’ long-term community, financial and asset <strong>plan</strong>ning. The changes are expectedto assist <strong>council</strong>s to:− integrate and streamline statutory <strong>plan</strong>ning and reporting;− strengthen strategic focus;− align with national sustainability frameworks; and− ensure accountability and responsiveness to local communities.The framework has been introduced across the state over a three-year transition period. Coffs Harbour City Council nominated to be in the firstgroup of <strong>council</strong>s, electing an implementation date of 1 July 2010.The framework requires the development and implementation of the following components:− a Community Strategic Plan – developed and maintained with the assistance of a community engagement strategy,and covering a timeframe of at least 10 years;− a long-term Resourcing Strategy (Financial Plan, Asset Management Strategy and Workforce Management Strategy);− a four-year Delivery Program (generally aligned to the term of each <strong>council</strong>);− a one-year Operational Plan;− an Annual Report; and− an ongoing monitoring and review process.Coffs Harbour City Council – Draft <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> Operational Plan 11 April <strong>2013</strong> Page 1


Integrated Planning and Reporting – the Operational Plan (Continued)Each NSW <strong>council</strong> is required to prepare an Operational Plan under the State’s Integrated Planning and Reporting (IPR) legislation. A briefintroduction to the IPR framework is included in Council’s <strong>2013</strong>/2017 Delivery Program.The Local Government Act 1993 (Amended 2009) sets out the following:405 Operational <strong>plan</strong>1. A <strong>council</strong> must have a <strong>plan</strong> (its <strong>operational</strong> <strong>plan</strong>) that is adopted before the beginning of each year and details the activities to be engagedin by the <strong>council</strong> during the year as part of the delivery program covering that year.2. An <strong>operational</strong> <strong>plan</strong> must include a statement of the <strong>council</strong>’s revenue policy for the year covered by the <strong>operational</strong> <strong>plan</strong>. The statement ofrevenue policy must include the statements and particulars required by the regulations.3. A <strong>council</strong> must prepare a <strong>draft</strong> <strong>operational</strong> <strong>plan</strong> and give public notice of the <strong>draft</strong> indicating that submissions may be made to the <strong>council</strong> atany time during the period (not less than 28 days) that the <strong>draft</strong> is to be on public exhibition. The <strong>council</strong> must publicly exhibit the <strong>draft</strong><strong>operational</strong> <strong>plan</strong> in accordance with the notice.4. During the period of public exhibition, the <strong>council</strong> must have for inspection at its office (and at such other places as it may determine) a mapthat shows those parts of its area to which each category and sub-category of the ordinary rate and each special rate included in the <strong>draft</strong><strong>operational</strong> <strong>plan</strong> applies.5. In deciding on the final <strong>operational</strong> <strong>plan</strong> to be adopted, a <strong>council</strong> must consider any submissions that have been made concerning the <strong>draft</strong><strong>plan</strong>.6. The <strong>council</strong> must post a copy of its <strong>operational</strong> <strong>plan</strong> on the <strong>council</strong>’s website within 28 days after the <strong>plan</strong> is adopted.The full IPR legislation, Guidelines and Manual, can be accessed via an Integrated Planning and Reporting link on the Department of LocalGovernment website (www.dlg.nsw.gov.au).A review of Council operations and performance measures has been undertaken – in consultation with the organisation’s long-term resourcingstrategies - to ensure Council is positioned to address its responsibilities under the Coffs Harbour 2030 Community Strategic Plan.

How to Read the Delivery Program and Operational PlanCouncil’s Delivery Program and Operational Plan have been structured to match the Themes, Objectives and Strategies of the Coffs Harbour2030 Community Strategic Plan.During 2011/2012, Council initiated an ongoing, organisation-wide Service Level Review that established a new, <strong>operational</strong> framework. Itidentifies 41 Services that match community perceptions of what Council does. These are Council’s “principal activities”; they are directlyaligned with Coffs Harbour 2030 and encompass all of the projects and ongoing tasks undertaken by Council. This Service framework providesthe foundation for the Delivery Program and Operational Plan.Delivery ProgramSome Services play a role in implementing more than one 2030 strategy and are aligned accordingly. The Delivery Program distinguishesbetween “External Services” which have a direct impact on 2030 goals (eg, Roads and Bridges, Waste Management and Community Services)and “Internal Services” which support the general running of Council (eg, Finance, Corporate Information Systems, Governance and HumanResources).Illustrated simply, the Delivery Program sets out the following:2030 ThemeCoffs Harbour City Council<strong>2013</strong>/2017 Delivery Program2030 Objective2030 Strategy(and Council’s identified role asProvider/Facilitator/Advocate)Council Service(and Responsible Officer)Coffs Harbour 2030Community Strategic PlanDeliverable(Measure of CHCC Impact)Coffs Harbour City Council – Draft <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> Operational Plan 11 April <strong>2013</strong> Page 3


How to Read the Delivery Program and Operational Plan (Continued)Much of the work Council undertakes is ongoing in nature; that is, activities that are carried out on a regular basis and have no ‘end-date’ (forexample, street cleaning, Customer Service, the hire of Community Facilities, etc). The rest of Council’s workload is made up of projects withspecific start and end-dates (including the development of <strong>plan</strong>s and strategies and the implementation of new processes); in many cases,projects have individual budgets (for example, the flood mitigation works associated with the 2010 rate variation). Each thematic section in theDelivery Program includes an overview of significant projects scheduled to be undertaken during the four-year term of the document.Operational PlanThe Operational Plan details the activities that Council will undertake in a single financial year. It is structured as follows:Council Service(and Responsible Officer)2030 Strategy/ies(addressed by Service)Service Element/sDetailed Budgets<strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong>Projects, Programsand ActivitiesThe Operational Plan is set out according to Council Service. Services have subsets called “Elements” which encompass activities within aspecific <strong>operational</strong> area (Environmental Management, for example, has three Elements – Biodiversity Management, Onsite SewerManagement and Sustainability). Activities are identified as “Projects” (where progress is reported in narrative form) or “Metrics” (wherenumbers, percentages or dollar amounts reflect performance status). Activities that are shaded in blue serve as measures for the DeliveryProgram; these are to be reported on six-monthly – in line with IPR legislation – to reflect the impact that Council activities are having inachieving the strategic goals of the Coffs Harbour 2030 Plan.The Operational Plan should be read in conjunction with Council’s Draft Program Budgets <strong>2013</strong>/2017 (see separate document).Coffs Harbour City Council – Draft <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> Operational Plan 11 April <strong>2013</strong> Page 4


How to Read the Delivery Program and Operational Plan (Continued)Quadruple Bottom Line AssessmentCouncil’s entire IPR framework is intended to ensure that all interests – social, economic, environmental and governance - arecomprehensively addressed. These Quadruple Bottom Line (QBL) principles underpin the establishment, implementation and review ofCouncil’s <strong>operational</strong> activities and guide their alignment – often on a multi-dimensional basis – with the strategic goals of Coffs Harbour 2030.In the Operational Plan – to help illustrate the outcome-focused intent of Council activities - Service Elements are tagged with special iconswhich indicate the key QBL area (or areas) that they address. These are:Social Environmental Economic GovernanceAssessment FrameworkThe Operational Plan identifies all of the projects, programs and activities that Council will undertake during the financial year. Measures havebeen assigned to each task to enable performance to be monitored according to the different <strong>operational</strong> needs of individual Services acrossthe organization. In line with IPR legislation, Council provides quarterly exception reporting on the budget in the Operational Plan.Long-term sustainability indicators have been developed to help measure the achievement of the strategic goals within the Coffs Harbour 2030Plan. These indicators will be finalized as part of the 2030 Plan review and implemented from 1 July <strong>2013</strong>. They will assist in providing data forthe four-yearly, End of Term reporting needs of the Community Strategic Plan.An organization-wide review is underway to establish a new range of measures at Delivery Program level. For implementation from 1 July<strong>2013</strong>, these measures will help to assess the effectiveness of Council Services in implementing 2030 strategies and achieving 2030 strategicobjectives.Financial EstimatesProgram Budgets identify detailed allocations for <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> and the subsequent three years. For reference, the adopted budget figures for theprevious year (2012/<strong>2013</strong>) are also provided. Budgets can be accessed on Council’s website at: www.<strong>coffs</strong><strong>harbour</strong>.nsw.gov.auCoffs Harbour City Council – Draft <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> Operational Plan 11 April <strong>2013</strong> Page 5


Community EngagementThe community has a role in helping to set the strategic objectives, program priorities and service levels to be pursued by Council. Acomprehensive range of community engagement processes is available to assist the community to participate in Council decision-making andto be informed about Council activities.Community engagement and/or participation refers to the broad manner in which the views, aspirations and values of the community arecommunicated to ensure they are effectively able to inform, influence and assist in the decision-making of Council.True participation involves an active exchange of information and viewpoints between the community and Council.The range and scope of decisions made by the Council are broad, involving various degrees of complexity and requiring varying levels ofexpertise and accountability. Effective community engagement improves the decision-making capa<strong>city</strong> of the Council by:• Ensuring access to information that is relevant to the issue at hand;• Providing mechanisms for ensuring the views, values and vision of those likely to be affected by the decision are available to decisionmakers;• Balancing the right of all members of the community to be involved in the decision-making process with the need for this process to beaccountable, efficient and fair;• Ensuring that it is clear that, ultimately, the decision-making authority of the Council rests with the community's elected representatives;• Providing for increased levels of community participation in decision-making where appropriate.Council is committed to active engagement processes and to choosing strategies that are appropriate to the business of Council given thenature of its work and the time and resources available. Staff facilitating engagement processes must be guided by the principles contained inCouncil’s Community Engagement policy. These include flexibility and responsiveness, timeliness, transparency, inclusiveness and theprinciples of social justice.Different projects, issues or proposals require different levels of community engagement. The level of community participation that isappropriate depends on the level and scale of impact as discussed above, and will be determined having consideration of:• The urgency of the issue and the time available for deliberation and decision making;• The availability of resources (including staff, facilitation skills, venues, technology and financial resources);• The needs of accountability, transparency and equity; and• The improved decision-making and information flows that might emerge from greater levels of participation.Council’s Community Engagement Policy can be viewed online at: www.<strong>coffs</strong><strong>harbour</strong>.nsw.gov.auCoffs Harbour City Council – Draft <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> Operational Plan 11 April <strong>2013</strong> Page 6


Community Engagement (Continued)Council is committed to involving the community in the development of its strategic and <strong>operational</strong> <strong>plan</strong>s.A Community Engagement Strategy has been underway since September 2012 to support the review of the Coffs Harbour 2030 CommunityStrategic Plan. That strategy runs parallel with the consultation process for the other IPR <strong>draft</strong> documents tabled for public exhibition in April<strong>2013</strong> (see below).A separate engagement strategy continues to be implemented in regard to Council’s application to extend the CBD Special Rate for a furtherten years (see page 11). Another engagement process is under development for the finalisation of a strategy to address Council’s resourcingchallenge from <strong>2014</strong>/2015 onwards (see page 14).Following their adoption by Council, the Draft <strong>2013</strong>/2017 Delivery Program, Draft <strong>2013</strong>/2017 Operational Plan, Draft Program Budgets<strong>2013</strong>/2017 and Draft Fees and Charges <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> will be placed on public exhibition for 28 days (Friday 12 April to Friday 10 May <strong>2013</strong>). The<strong>draft</strong> documents will be available to be accessed on Council’s website: www.<strong>coffs</strong><strong>harbour</strong>.nsw.gov.au Hard copies will also be displayed atCouncil’s Administrative Centre, at the three branches of the City Library (Coffs Harbour, Woolgoolga and Toormina), at General Stores andPost Offices in Karangi, Coramba, Nana Glen, Lowanna, Ulong, Corindi and Red Rock and at the Coffs Harbour Visitor Information Centre.The public exhibition process will be promoted to the local media. All promotional material will encourage the community to consider the <strong>draft</strong>documents and provide feedback to Council. Community submissions can be made online or via mail.Council will consider all community submissions prior to finalising the <strong>2013</strong>/2017 Delivery Program, <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> Operational Plan, ProgramBudgets <strong>2013</strong>/2017 and Fees and Charges <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong>. It is Council practice to provide a written response to each submission writer to advisethe outcome of their submission.Public Exhibition of the Draft Delivery Program and Draft Operational PlanNOTICE UNDER SECTION 405(3) - Local Government Act 1993 for the Rating Period - 12 months: 1 July <strong>2013</strong> to 30 June <strong>2014</strong>Section 405 (3) “A <strong>council</strong> must prepare a <strong>draft</strong> <strong>operational</strong> <strong>plan</strong> and give public notice of the <strong>draft</strong> indicating that submissions may be made tothe <strong>council</strong> at any time during the period (not less than 28 days) that the <strong>draft</strong> is to be on public exhibition.

Application for Special Variation to General Income <strong>2013</strong>/14 to 2022/23Early in 2012, Council applied to the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) for approval to continue the CBD Special Rate for afurther ten-year period from 2012/<strong>2013</strong>. The Special Rate was introduced in 2000 to fund an ongoing program to revitalise Coffs Harbour's CityCentre as a vibrant commercial and community precinct. The initiative has delivered outstanding results, however the Special Rate was due toexpire in June 2012. The application was developed - with the support of the local business community - to extend the program with a scope ofnew works to facilitate the future growth of the City Centre.On 4 June 2012, IPART approved the application for the 2012/<strong>2013</strong> financial year only, to give Council time to further develop a City CentreMaster<strong>plan</strong> to guide the revitalisation program.On 28 June 2012, resolved to incorporate a special variation application (to extend the CBD Special Rate for a further ten-year period) in thedevelopment of the <strong>2013</strong>/2017 Delivery Program.Council has applied to the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) to continue the Business City Centre Special Rate for a furtherten-year period.IPART has already approved a state wide ‘Rate Pegging’ increase of 3.4% for <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong>. On top of this, Council is seeking a further 2.03%increase in ‘General Income’ (income from ordinary and special rates) - a total increase of 5.43%. This additional income (above the rate pegginglimit) represents the proposed continuation of the Business City Centre Special Rate.The application for additional rate revenue has no impact on Residential, Farmland or Business properties outside the Coffs Harbour CBD.Consultation ProcessThe CBD Special Rate Variation proposal has been the focus of a separate community engagement process which began in 2011. Consultationhas included:• Detailed mail-outs to CBD business property owners who currently pay the Special Rate. All stakeholders were invited to provide feedback(via a dedicated e-mail address or in writing) to the various proposals;• An external local research organisation was commissioned to conduct a random telephone survey of business property owners. The surveycanvassed opinion towards a proposed continuation of the Special Rate for CBD business owners, and the introduction of such a rate tobusiness property owners in the wider City Centre LEP boundary;• A series of business forums facilitated by Council’s General Manager and Director of Corporate Business. All business property ownerswithin the CBD and the wider City Centre LEP area were invited to attend to discuss the future growth of business in the City and thepossible extension of the CBD Special Rate. A dedicated e-mail address was again provided for feedback for those stakeholders notattending the forums.• The establishment of a CBD Master<strong>plan</strong> Committee including a ‘Terms of Reference’.Coffs Harbour City Council – Draft <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> Operational Plan 11 April <strong>2013</strong> Page 11


Application for Special Variation to General Income <strong>2013</strong>/2022 (Continued)• A letter to all CBD business property-owners requesting applications from interested parties wanting to join the CBD Master<strong>plan</strong> Committee.• Four Master<strong>plan</strong> Community Engagement Workshops conducted by community engagement consultants - with feedback from theseworkshops being used in the development of the <strong>draft</strong> City Centre Master<strong>plan</strong>.• A letter to all CBD business property-owners advising the public exhibition of the <strong>draft</strong> City Centre Master<strong>plan</strong>. This letter provided adedicated e-mail address, website and mailing address where submissions on the <strong>draft</strong> Plan could be made.Submissions of support have clearly indicated satisfaction with the level of consultation and with the rigour and fairness of the process.Financial ImpactsCouncil’s application to IPART is based on the current level of funding from the CBD Special Rate being maintained and increased by the annualrate pegging allowance over the next ten years.The following table shows the estimated annual rate revenue to be generated over this period from the proposed Special Rate continuation.YearYear StartingAnnual RatePeggingAllowance(%)CBD SpecialRate Yield ($)1 1/07/<strong>2013</strong> 3.4 691,6402 1/07/<strong>2014</strong> 3* 712,3903 1/07/2015 3* 733,7604 1/07/2016 3* 755,7705 1/07/2017 3* 778,4406 1/07/2018 3* 801,7907 1/07/2019 3* 825,8408 1/07/2020 3* 850,6159 1/07/2021 3* 876,13510 1/07/2022 3* 902,420Total 7,928,800Please Note: Special Rate yields after <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> have been calculated using an estimated rate pegging allowance of 3%.Coffs Harbour City Council – Draft <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> Operational Plan 11 April <strong>2013</strong> Page 12


Application for Special Variation to General Income <strong>2013</strong>/2022 (Continued)Impact on Business City Centre RatesIf the CBD Special Rate is continued for <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> the average ordinary rate for a Business City Centre property will increase from approximately$7,081.01 in 2012/<strong>2013</strong> to $7,319.78 for <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong>. This represents an average increase of approximately $238.77 or 3.4%.If the CBD Special Rate is not continued for <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong>, an average ordinary rate for a CBD Business property will decrease from approximately$7,085 in 2012/<strong>2013</strong> to $5,031 for <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong>. This represents an average decrease of approximately $1,909 or 26.9%.City Centre Master<strong>plan</strong> WorksCouncil has now finalised the development of a City Centre Master<strong>plan</strong> in conjunction with a CBD Master<strong>plan</strong> committee. This Master<strong>plan</strong> hasdeveloped a program of works to be funded with the proposed CBD Special Rate.The Master<strong>plan</strong> has set out a series of Strategies and Projects that are to be undertaken in the coming years.• StrategiesAccess and movementLegibilityKey land use and open space−Key connections−City centre legibility−Strategic sites−Bike <strong>plan</strong>−Brand positioning−Rear lane activation−Parking−City centre management−Development incentive policy−Resilience and flood <strong>plan</strong>• Projects−Harbour Drive Access−City Square Cultural Building−Castle Street Carpark−Wayfinding−Entertainment Centre−Street Reconfiguration−City Sails−Roundabout Retrofit−Brelsford Park−City Square−Bus Hub Location−Events ProgramCoffs Harbour City Council – Draft <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> Operational Plan 11 April <strong>2013</strong> Page 13

This might be achieved through productivity improvements, changes to levels of service, new revenuestreams and/or additional rate income.A strategy is to be pursued during <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> – in consultation with the community – to develop measures to address this resourcing challenge from<strong>2014</strong>/2015 onwards (see page 23 of the Draft <strong>2013</strong>/2017 Delivery Program).


Statement of Council’s Revenue Policy <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong>Draft <strong>2013</strong>/2017 Financial estimatesThe Financial Estimates for the four years have been prepared in considerable detail, ie the same detail as the Draft <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> Budget. A review ofthe estimates for each fund reveals as follows:• General FundThe <strong>draft</strong> four year Estimates project the following results:YearFinancialEstimate ($)<strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> 0 (Balanced)<strong>2014</strong>/2015 333,289 (Deficit)2015/2016 153,848 (Deficit)2016/2017 231,858 (Surplus)Operational incomes and expenditures are tightly budgeted and have been subject to constant scrutiny in recent years.There are significant capital works <strong>plan</strong>ned which are funded from rate variations, trading operations, grants, loans, S94 contributions, reserves,etc.Council's revenues are not meeting appropriate expenditure levels in relation to operations, particularly infrastructure maintenance, assetrenewals and capital works. A range of potential solutions to this situation will need to be explored. It is proposed to address this matter inrelation to the <strong>2013</strong>/14 financial year through the Long Term Financial Plan, Delivery Program, Asset Management Strategy and WorkforceManagement Strategy. To assist, Council will use the results from the recently completed Service Review and other reviews in progress. Theseinclude:−−−Update to Asset Management Plan,Revenue and expenditure reviews,Community Strategic Plan update.Coffs Harbour City Council – Draft <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> Operational Plan 11 April <strong>2013</strong> Page 15


Statement of Council’s Revenue Policy (Continued)• Water and Sewerage FundsBoth the Water and Sewerage Funds have undertaken massive programs of capital works in recent years. Expenditure has been in excess of$300 million. These works have been essential to maintain the viability of our <strong>city</strong>. Work is progressing on the final project: the decommissioningof the Sawtell Sewerage Treatment Plant and the construction of a sewerage trunk main from Sawtell to Coffs Harbour.This unprecedented program has been funded by a combination of loan funds, developer contributions, reserve funds and grants. Loan fundshave been the major source, with $221 million borrowed.Rates and annual charges have been held to reasonable increases in recent years, despite the large increase in loan repayments. This has beenachieved by using the cash reserves of each fund to meet annual budgeted deficits.The <strong>draft</strong> Delivery Program provides for the deficits to decrease from <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> to 2015/16 and then move into surplus, as set out below:Year Water ($) Sewerage ($)<strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> 4,553,442 (Deficit) 3,165,226 (Deficit)<strong>2014</strong>/2015 2,148,030 (Deficit) 2,849,079 (Deficit)2015/2016 106,946 (Deficit) 1,816,740 (Deficit)2016/2017 293,706 Surplus 1,938,001 SurplusThe decrease in deficits is achieved primarily due to reducing loan repayments but also due to growth in assessments, increased developercontributions, and annual rates and charges increases.The viability of both funds is assured in future years.Coffs Harbour City Council – Draft <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> Operational Plan 11 April <strong>2013</strong> Page 16


Statement of Council’s Revenue Policy (Continued)Variation to General Income – 3.4% ‘Rate Pegging’ IncreaseShould Council not be successful with the proposed special rate variation - being the continuation of a Special Rate applied only to Businessproperties within the City Centre (CBD) (see page 11), the Draft <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> Operational Plan allows for the implementation of a 3.4% increase in‘General Income’ (income from ordinary and special rates), announced for <strong>2013</strong>/<strong>2014</strong> by the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART)under Local Government ‘Rate Pegging’ legislation.• Impact on Residential RatepayersWith a 3.4% rate variation, a typical residential ratepayer can expect a total rate increase (including annual and usage charges) of approximately$150.61 per annum (or $2.90 per week), which is a 5.1% increase from 2012/<strong>2013</strong>.In this instance, the impact upon the typical residential ratepayer's rate notice and annual water usage accounts is detailed in the following table:Rates & Charges 2012/13 <strong>2013</strong>/14 Increase($) ($) Amount ($) %Residential Ordinary Rate 901.15 932.01 30.86 3.4Environmental Levy 37.10 38.35 1.25 3.4Sewerage Access Charge 760.00 783.00 23.00 3.0Water Access Charge 135.00 139.00 4.00 3.0Water Usage (250 Kl pa) 620.00 637.50 17.50 2.8Domestic Waste Service 460.00 534.00 74.00 16.1Stormwater Management 25.00 25.00 0.00 0.0Totals 2,938.25 3,088.86 150.61 5.1The following comments should be considered in conjunction with the above information:1.
