Decision:
As detailed in the recommendation.
Minutes:
The Cabinet Member for Social Services presented a report to seek approval for the proposed expansion of the Flying Start programme in Flintshire. The proposed areas for expansion in Flintshire were outlined within the report and were areas identified as having the highest concentration of 0-3 year olds living in income benefit households.
The Director of Community Services welcomed the proposed expansion and commented on the positive impacts in the areas where Flintshire Flying Start was currently delivered.
In response to a question on future funding, the Chief Executive explained that the expansion of the Flying Start Programme was part of the Welsh Government Programme for Government and, therefore, he did not envisage a reduction in future grant funding.
RESOLVED:
That the proposals for the expansion of the Flying Start Programme in Flintshire be approved.
