(1)          Noted the actions that had been proposed or taken where performance was currently a concern as shown in table 3.1 of the report.

Minutes:

The Committee received a report providing an update on progress against its key priority targets.

The following matters were considered:

·                     Residential properties for temporary emergency accommodation. A member of the Committee requested further information regarding the status of the action detailed on page 30 of the agenda with regard to securing two properties for temporary emergency accommodation. This was currently listed as ‘Green’. The Head of Housing and Community informed the Committee that whilst no properties had yet been secured, he was confident that progress was being made, and that this status was correct.

·                     Accommodation of 15 households through the private sector leasing (PSL)scheme. A member of the Committee requested further information regarding the status of the action detailed on page 30 of the agenda with regard to accommodating 15 households through the PSL scheme. This was currently listed as ‘Green’. The Head of Housing and Community informed the Committee that difficulties were being experienced in this project in relation to the willingness of banks to lend money for properties participating in the scheme. In light of this, the status of the action might change to ‘Amber’ in future monitoring. Officers would investigate whether the leases issued by the Council could be amended to assist with the issue. Members of the Committee suggested that if bank lending persisted as a problem, that the Local Government Association should be contacted to raise the profile of the issue.

Following consideration, the Committee:

(1)          Noted the actions that had been proposed or taken where performance was currently a concern, as shown in table 3.1 of the report.
