Scrutiny Review of Regeneration
Meeting: 13/06/2019 - Overview and Scrutiny Committee (Item 11)
11 Scrutiny Review of Regeneration Funding PDF 698 KB
Minutes:
Councillor Paul Barnett submitted a report to set out the context, methods, key findings and recommendations from this review.
Councillors thank Councillor Barnett and his team for their hard work on this report. They commented that it is a very good and challenging report and hope that it will be taken in the spirit as it is intended. They commented that it is a good example of how scrutiny works together and leaves party politics out of their work.
Councillors discussed the poorer boroughs in Hastings and how this report should ensure that they are not being left behind. Area champions and better use of ward councillors will have a positive impact on these problems if feasible. It was commented that BREXIT implications are not directly mentioned in this report but maybe referenced in the management response as impacting on the types of funding available for the council to apply for in the future.
Councillors also spoke about Clinical Commissioning Group’s (CCG) and how the funding from them in the future is uncertain due to their current financial constraints.
Councillors voted on the recommendations of the report and agreed unanimously.
RESOLVED that:
1. That Overview and Scrutiny approve this report so that a Cabinet and Management response is then sought on the proposed recommendations and associated questions raised.
2. That Overview and Scrutiny thank their review team and those that contributed to this review.
The reason for this decision was:
To arrive at a response to the recommendations made in this report that will (subject to Scrutiny approval) likely inform further associated Scrutiny work.
