Report of the Senior Leadership Team

Minutes:

The Chief Executive introduced a report, which had been circulated in advance of the meeting, informing members in summary of the position against improvement actions and performance indicators in the 2020-23 Gedling Plan at the end of quarter 2 of 2022/23 quarter 2.

 

Members noted that bed and breakfasts are used for large families and asked what is being done to tackle the issue with expenditure on temporary accommodation. They also highlighted that the Council are buying and building 2-3 bedroom properties, whilst some families may need 4-5 bedroom properties.

 

The Chief Executive explained that the funding received is predominantly spent where there is the most demand which is currently for single people but confirmed there are some large families seeking accommodation as well. It was highlighted that there are no large houses available in the borough but discussions have been held with partners and developers to address the issue. Some developers have committed to building 4-5 bedroom properties to help in this regard but agreed that this is a long-term solution.

 

Members asked whether the equalities and diversity training would be available for Members to attend online and whether the training will be incorporated into Member’s induction training following the upcoming election.

 

The Chief Executive confirmed that this training will be available to Members and that an extensive induction training programme has been planned for any new members following the upcoming election.

 

RESOLVED:

 

That the progress against the improvement actions and performance indicators in the 2020-23 Gedling Plan for the end of quarter 2 of 2022/23 be noted.

 

Councillor Martin Smith left the meeting.
