Issue - meetings

As detailed in the recommendations.

The Director of Community Services presented the update on the development of a Single Access Route to Housing (SARTH) across the North East Wales sub region.

Issues raised through consultation via an Overview & Scrutiny workshop were appended to the report and approval was sought to progress to the next stages of the project, with delegated authority to be given to the Head of Housing to proceed with a full public consultation exercise leading to the business case being considered at Cabinet and Overview & Scrutiny.  It was noted that the estimated development costs would be met from within existing budgets.

RESOLVED:

(a)       That the development of the project to date and the responses to the questions from the Member Workshop be noted;

(b)       That Flintshire County Council continues working with partners on the SARTH project and agrees to contribute to the development costs, subject to budget approval; and

(c)        That the Head of Housing, following consultation with the portfolio holder, be given delegated authority to conduct a full public consultation on the Joint Register and Common Allocations Policy.
