A
A
It's
four
o'clock,
so
we
can
launch
into
today's
cabinet
and
I
think
everyone's
here
now.
So
thank
you
all
for
attending
as
usual
cabinet
counsellors,
members
of
the
public-
just
let
you
know
a
summary
version
of
the
agenda
and
the
reports
are
available
at
the
meeting
today.
So
if
you
want
to
get
a
copy,
you
please
do
grab
one
and
the
cabinet
have
read
these
reports
already
and
they're
also
available
on
the
city
councils
website.
I
do
as
part
of
this
first
agenda
item.
A
I
just
have
to
tell
you
let
you
know
about
a
couple
of
things
that
will
come
up
during
a
meeting
so
following
the
direction
issued
on
the
26th
of
July
from
Defra
and
a
letter
from
client
earth
that
highlights
some
issues
in
relation
to
how
options
have
been
formulated.
I've
decided
to
defer
the
decision
on
the
clean
air
action
plan
so
that
further
work
can
be
done
on
the
initial
feasibility
study.
We
also
want
to
seek
clarification
and
guidance
from
the
government
on
the
direction
to
make
sure
that
we
have
got
our
approach
right.
A
So
further
report
will
be
brought
back
to
cabinet
once
this
has
been
done.
So,
although
the
report
is
no
longer
on
the
agenda,
I'd
still
like
to
take
the
statements
of
those
who
wanted
to
make
statements
which
will
be
receipt
received
at
the
appropriate
time.
I'd
also
like
to
point
out
that
today's
agenda
has
an
urgent
report
at
item
14
about
Department
for
Transport
grant
funding.
Now
the
DFT
amounts
that
the
City
Council
us
have
been
successful
with
to
grant
bids,
namely
the
DFT
challenge
fund
schemes.
A
Officers
require
cabinet
approval
to
start
spending
and
commence
the
works
on
these
schemes,
and
so
they
need
us
to
in
in
order
to
complete
within
12
months,
which
is
at
the
FT
requirement.
So
bringing
us
reports
at
the
earliest
possible
cabinet
gives
gives
our
officers
the
best
opportunity
to
deliver
the
projects
to
program
and
to
budget.
So
due
to
the
timing
of
the
FT
and
nights
when
it
was
not
possible
to
include
this
decision
in
the
previously
published
forward
plan.
But
under
the
provisions
of
access
to
information
procedure,
rule
APR,
15.
A
A
So
when
you
do
speak,
please
use
the
microphone
so
that
you
can
be
heard
clearly
by
people
they
were
who
are
watching
at
home,
so
agenda
item
2
is
a
public
forum
just
a
reminder
that
statements
and
questions
will
be
taken
at
the
time
with
the
relevant
agenda
item
being
discussed,
questions
received
a
contained
in
the
public
forum
pact
and
will
also
be
displayed
on
the
screen
at
the
appropriate
time
and
I'll
give
a
right
of
apply
and
ask
the
relevant
cabinet
member
to
respond
at
that
time.
Agenda
item
threes:
apologies
for
absence.
A
We
have
two
today
Maps
forum,
councillor
Helen
Godwin
and
council
Avari
Ethel.
So
just
to
note
that
agenda
item
for
declarations
of
interest
can
I
ask
any
cabinet
members
to
declare
any
interest
in
relation
to
today's
agenda,
none
which
my
okay.
Thank.
You
agenda.
Item
five
matters
referred
for
consideration
by
scrutiny
or
full
council.
A
There
are
none
on
this
occasion,
agenda
item
six
reports
from
scrutiny
commissions
and
there
are
none
on
this
occasion
and
joined
up
itis
agenda
item,
seven,
which
is
a
chairs
business
which
I
have
a
chance
to
say
something
so
I'm
just
letting
you
know.
No
doubt
most
of
you
would
have
seen
what's
going
on
in
Charlottesville
in
the
United
States
at
the
moment.
A
B
Amongst
other
issues,
the
Ward
has
neighborhoods
of
relatively
severe
social
economic
deprivation
and
a
declining
community
infrastructure
that
has
suffered
from
disinvestment
over
the
last
ten
to
fifteen
years,
following
agreement
of
the
remit
for
the
port
community's
resilience
fund
between
the
mayor
and
the
ward
councillors
and
further
research
into
local
needs
and
consultation
with
the
communities
via
the
neighborhood
partnership
and
an
event
held
in
November
2016.
It
is
being
proposed
that
the
cabinet
now
approves
approximately
two-thirds
of
the
fund
to
be
spent
on
economic
development
and
one-third
on
social
community
priorities.
B
They
are
jobs
in
enterprise
totaling,
four
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
pounds
thriving
high
streets,
135,000
pounds
and
community
facilities
315
thousand
pounds.
There
will
also
be
a
small
technical
assistance
fund
of
fifty
thousand
pounds
to
support
community
and
voluntary
organizations
and
small
businesses
in
the
ward,
with
preparation
of
viable
and
sustainable
projects,
including
complementary
funding
from
external
fork
sources.
B
There
is
also
an
allocation
of
fifty
thousand
pounds
to
employ
a
program
manager
based
locally
to
ensure
effective
development
of
projects
and
delivery
of
the
fund
and
to
monitor
the
outcomes
and
impacts
for
the
benefit
of
the
communities.
The
expectation
is
that
the
1
million
pound
fund
invested
by
the
council
will
attract
matching
complementary
firms
of
both
capital
and
revenue
funding
from
charitable
and
corporate
sources
to
support
the
program
and
promote
resilient
projects.
B
There
will
be
a
stand
to
promote
the
fund
and
the
community
grant
scheme
at
the
Gorham
fair,
which
is
being
held
at
blaze
castle
on
the
9th
of
September.
The
cabinet
is
also
being
asked
to
approve
that
delivery
plans
for
the
jobs
and
enterprise
and
high
street
priorities
will
be
brought
forward
and
delegated
to
the
cabinet
leads
and
strategic
director
for
funding
decisions
later
in
2017
18.
Thank
you.
A
C
Hello
I'm
here
representing
Avonmouth
Community
Center
Association
I,
just
wanted
to
read
the
statement
so
Avonmouth
Community
Center
is
the
main
provider
of
community
space
and
health
and
well-being
activities
in
Avonmouth
and
acts
as
a
hub
for
the
work
of
partners.
Such
a
public
as
public
health
and
others
in
Avonmouth,
Avonmouth,
Community,
Center
Association,
is
in
the
process
of
receiving
a
community
asset
transfer
as
the
community
center
built
in
a
neighbor
mouth.
This
building
also
houses
a
council
funded
library
which
is
set
to
close
under
all
three
options
in
consultation.
C
The
building
is
in
a
rundown
condition
and
in
particular
there
was
a
problem
with
the
wooden
floor
in
a
large
portion
of
the
building,
which
is
rotting
away.
The
intention
has
been
to
do
some
extensive
repair
and
refurbishment
work.
Once
the
transfer
had
happened,
part
of
this
work
being
to
react,
locate
the
library
replace
the
floor
and
putting
in
a
new
kitchen
in
the
vacant
space
50,000
pounds
from
the
library
budget
was
promised
for
this
work,
but
it's
now
being
withdrawn.
It
was
intended
to
use
this
perch
of
money
to
lever
in
other
funding.
C
We
have
so
far
successfully
had
pledges
of
15,000
towards
the
work
Avonmouth
community
center
desperately
needs
investment
or
the
firm
promise
of
investment.
If
we're
to
go
ahead
with
the
planned
community
asset
transfer,
a
successful
community
asset
transfer
will
enabled
the
community
to
build
on
the
resilience
and
sense
of
community
which
already
exists
neighbor
mouth,
therefore
contributing
to
the
sustainability
of
the
area
and,
ultimately,
reducing
revenue
cost
for
the
council.
C
Therefore,
we
would
urge
the
cabinet
to
approve
the
proposal
of
the
objectives,
criteria
and
delivery
plans,
which
will
allow
the
port
community
resilience
fund
community
facilities
grant
scheme
to
be
launched.
We
would
also
ask
that
BCC
consider
committing
50,000
as
initially
promised
to
the
community
center,
in
addition
to
any
funds
which
ACCA
was
able
to
access
from
the
port
communities
resilience
fund.
A
Let's
I
appreciate
your
contribution,
so
let's,
let's
catch
up
all
for
this
actually
and
there's
this
look
at
some
of
the
issues
that
you've
raised
there
need
to
welcome
to
charli's.
You
know
we
don't
need
to
repeat
again,
so
it's
so
challenging
times
at
the
moment,
but
we
have
an
absolute
desire
to
invest,
particularly
in
the
the
grocery
network
that
we
think
builds
resilience
in
our
into
our
communities.
So
how
we
do
that
and
how
we
mobilize
new
finances,
you'll
hear
later
on,
is
it's
a
key
challenge
for
us.
A
Can
I
offer
any
other
cabinet
members
time
to
speak
to
this?
You
might
like
to
comment:
no
okay,
okay,
so
thank
you,
Asha
and
thank
you
Jack
as
well.
I
got
that
right
that
Jay
a
seat
jack.
Thank
you,
yeah.
Thank
you
for
coming
today
and
contributing
I
was
explained
by
councillor
Craig
following
the
March
2015
cabinet
decision,
a
consultation
process
has
been
undertaken
to
devote
the
remit
and
spend
priorities
for
the
capital
fund.
You
know
three.
A
We
expect
the
and
enterprise
and
thriving
high
streets
priorities
will
be
assist,
will
assist
at
least
60
local
residents
into
work
and
the
the
environment
and
the
physical
vitality.
The
shopping
areas
will
benefit
as
well,
so
taking
into
account
what
you
said
about
the
impact
on
the
wider
area.
Let's
have
a
conversation
around
that
I'd
like
to
hand
this
back
to
cancer,
the
Craig
to
make
the
decision
which
I
support
council
agree.
B
A
D
The
Metro
bus
projects
has
been
long
in
development
and
involved
some
incredible
feats
of
engineering.
His
overall
aims
are
to
reduce
carbon
emissions,
support,
sustainable
economic
growth,
promotes
accessibility,
contributes
a
better
safety
security
and
health,
improve
quality
of
life
and
create
a
healthy
natural
environment,
and
most
of
all
help
people
get
around
the
city
region
more
easily,
all
of
which
are
laudable
aims,
but
has
come
at
some
financial
costs
and
ongoing
risk,
a
cost
which
is
escalated
quite
significantly
since
the
original
business
case.
D
This
is
a
project
and
overspend
that
we
have
inherited
and
we're
making
the
best
of
the
situation
by
forecasting
as
best
we
can
the
cost
of
the
project
and
containing
that
cost
within
our
existing
budgets.
In
order
to
plan
ahead
for
such
future
increases
on
the
projects,
the
team
have
calculated
a
worst-case
scenario
based
on
an
assessment
of
the
potential
risks
for
the
future.
D
This
assessment
needs
the
counts
or
needing
to
plan
for
a
further
potential
spend
of
6.8
million
pains
due
to
our
highly
geared
capital
program
and
difficulties
with
our
revenue
budget
transport
officers
have
been
tasked
with
coming
up
with
a
solution
from
within
their
own
budgets.
This
report
therefore
recommends
that
400k
of
this
spend
is
met
from
the
transport
capital
program,
and
the
remaining
6.4
million
is
met
by
prudential
borrowing
over
25
years,
the
repayment
of
which
will
be
made
from
the
transport
revenue
budget
and
mainly
by
ring-fencing
parking
income.
D
It
is
worth
noting
that
these
projected
overspends
are
on
a
worst
case
basis,
so
it's
hopeful
that
the
final
figures
will
be.
Obviously
that
cannot
be
guaranteed,
particularly
with
the
project
of
this
size
and
complexity.
The
recommendations
contained
within
the
report
are
on
the
screen
on
the
screens
and
I
recommend
the
reports
cabinet
today.
A
F
E
Nationally,
obviously,
we
support
Metro
bus,
but
there
are
a
number
of
issues
still
outstanding
and
we
are
concerned.
The
low
profile
the
Metro
mayor
is
playing
on
this
project
is
his
project,
a
weka's
project.
After
all,
it's
a
city,
regional
transport
project.
So
there
are
a
number
of
issues
still
outstanding.
One
is
to
make
sure
effectively
that
we
get
the
roadworks
under
control.
We
get
griffiths
more
accountable
in
terms
of
getting
the
public
realm
back
in
in
operation.
E
The
city
center
gets
dug
up
in
various
places
and
then
the
engineers
vanish,
and
we
end
up
with
sections.
What
we
want
to
see.
Rarely
is
sections
at
a
time
being
done
rather
than
a
dig
up
everything
at
the
same
time,
because
it
makes
it
very
difficult,
pedestrians,
cyclists,
walking
and
the
bus
services
and
also
the
equalities
issues.
The
full
Metro
bus
is
been
full
of
fou
equality
approvals.
It's
been
through
both
your
forum,
disabled
forum
and
it's
been
through
South
Gloucestershire,
so
there's
no
fear
when
it's
built.
E
It
won't
be
fully
compliant
with
the
disabled
legislation
and
the
equalities
Act.
But
the
other
thing
is:
is
the
bus?
Is
the
ticketing
issues
are
still
not
sorted
out
the
integrated
ticketing,
the
background
bus
network,
which
is
a
Wecker
project,
I
mean,
though
the
quality
Partnership
is
now
signed.
E
But
we
welcome
the
project.
The
project
must
be
funded,
it
can't
be
stopped
and
it
must
be
funded,
but
we
must
talk
through
rich
clearly
with
the
Metro
mayor
and
Wecker
about
the
project's
final
outcome
and
the
delivery.
Of
course,
it's
now
delayed
by
Bromley
he's
fired
up
by
another
year
on
the
Emerson's
green
area,
the
fishponds
area
and
down
and
services.
So
that's
going
to
cause
another
year
delay
on
the
project.
So
it's
gotta.
We
got
under
control,
but
the
project
is
very
important
to
the
Bristol
region.
E
A
A
We've
pulled
together
to
help
solve
the
sea
transport
challenges
and
rest
assured,
we
do
have
a
no
idle
roadworks
policy
which
I've
been
asking
for
since
for
a
long
time
now,
but
it
should
be
coming
to
you
through
through
wishing
to
make
sure
we
do
manage,
although
it
works
much
better
yeah,
that's
an
early
win
from
the
congestion
to
ask
who
the
new
you're
now
responsible
for
all
right.
Okay,
thank
you
very
much.
So
let's
go
to
questions
now
we
have
questions
first
for
Martin,
rands,
Martin,
he's.
A
H
Thank
you
for
metrobús.
The
cabinet
report
says
I'll
paraphrase
what
was
in
my
written
question,
but
basically
that,
in
order
to
fund
the
Metro
bus
over
spends,
it
will
require
other
projects
such
as
train
station
upgrades,
minor
traffic
schemes,
bus
priority
measures
etc
to
no
longer
be
funded.
It
doesn't
specify
which
schemes
those
will
be.
H
A
On
the
first
question,
caller
about
which
specific
schemes
I
come
back
to
you
with
a
fuller
list
from
that,
when
I
talk
to
transport
schemes,
I
mean
what
we've
we've
got.
The
members
that
we
anticipate
they'll
then
be
an
impact
on
actually
what
you
said.
You
know
general
station
improvements,
minor
traffic
schemes
and
bus
priority
measures.
A
So
let
me
come
back
to
you
with
some
more
information
on
what
those
are
likely
to
be
we'll
talk
to
a
transport
team
Avari
when
she's
back
next
week
and
if
I
can
actually
ask
you
encourage
you
to
reach
out
to
Farian
that,
in
terms
of
the
quality
impact
assessment,
the
point
is
well
made
actually
as
to
when
we
look
at
the
impact
on
those
other
schemes.
The
decision
having
a
knock-on
effect.
So
let
me
go
back
because,
in
terms
of
notes,
I've
got
we'd.
Actually
look
at
that.
A
So
let
me
go
back
and
have
a
look
at
that
and
then
come
back
to
you
and
and
raise
this
with
vari
as
well,
because
yeah,
it's
not
just
about
the
impact
of
the
individual
decision,
is
about
the
impact
of
the
decision
on
other
areas.
As
well
and
the
over
spills
of
that
and
whether
that
impacts
on
the
overall
accessibility
of
the
transport
system,
so
you
know
the
point
is
taken
created.
D
I
need
to
say
that
I
don't
think
we
know
what
these
projects
are
yeah
and
that's
why
we
can't
do
an
quality
assessment
on
projects
that
we
don't
know
that
we're
going
to
stop
so
I
think
they'll
happen
when
these
future
projects
didn't
happen.
If
that
makes
sense,
when
subsequent
decisions
to
stop
doing
things
we
had
planned
to
do,
then
the
equalities
impacts
will
be
assessed
at
that
point,
but.
A
What
we
could
take
account
of
is
the
ongoing
risk
measures
we
would
have
taken
to
make
transport
more
accessible
and
more
open
or
not
implemented,
and
so
in
some
sense
the
inaction
becomes
an
action
solving.
We
can.
You
can
have
a
look
at
that,
so
we'll
raise
it
with
vari
for
when
she
comes
back
next
week
and
osco
to
really
pick
up
and
ask
her
to
have
a
chat
with
you
about
if
you
reach
out
to
as
well
all
right.
Thank
you
next
question.
Charlie
Bolton
cancel
the
charlie
volkens.
Oh
sorry,
sorry
carry
on
and.
H
Yeah
I
look
forward
to
getting
that
in
writing.
That'll
be
really
helpful
and
just
to
say
you
know
we
do
submit
the
cabinet
questions
nearly
a
week
in
advance
so
that
these
things
can
be
looked
up
in
advance.
So
it's
quite
frustrating
that
the
answers
I've
got
on
both
questions
are
I,
don't
know,
I'll,
look
it
yeah.
Would
it
be
nice
to
have
the
answers
already?
Maybe
that
could
happen
next
time.
Well,.
A
The
me
I
think
the
point.
As
Craig
said,
the
specific
schemes
haven't
been
identified.
Unless
we
were
to
roll
out
all
the
schemes,
then
we
would
know
what
they
were
and
we
could
give
you
more
specific
answer.
What
I
can
do
is
go
back
to
transport
and
say
when
I
sold
fetor
to
fire
a
little
bit
and
then
do
at
least
do
some
some
foretelling
on
what
specific
schemes
might
be
impacted.
H
Was
getting
slightly
mixed
messages
there,
because
you
initially
said
that
your
notes
didn't
give
you
an
answer
on
that
and
then
obviously
later
councillor
Tony
came
in
saying
that
he
believed
that.
So,
if,
if
the
fact
is
that
they're
not
identified
yet
then
okay
I
understand
you
can't
magic
it
up,
but
it
sounded
like.
That's
you,
that's
your
assumption
of
why
you
don't
have.
D
A
In
an
effort
to
be
reasonable
about
it
and
not
just
cagey,
what
I
was
saying
was
what
we.
What
we
should
take
into
account
was
been
raised
by
your
question
rather
than
just
partner
off
was
to
say
that
actually,
if
things
are
delayed,
that
has
an
equality
impact
that
that
has
an
equality,
asset
impact
and
I'm,
not
sure
that
that
that
thinking
has
been
taken
into
account,
so
we'll
go
and
make
sure
there
is
taken
into
account
and
the
status
quo.
A
F
A
Fernet
requesting
one
for
metric
breasts:
can
you
guarantee
there
will
be
no
further
multi-million
pound
price
rises
into
total
cost,
and
is
there
a
limit
beyond
which
you
would
not
go
and
question
two
more
generally,
it's
always
the
politicians,
not
necessarily
the
current
ones,
who
get
blamed
for
these
large
price
hoax.
So
what
processes
will
you
put
in
like.
A
A
A
A
Priam,
the
overspend
yeah
okay,
well,
I
mean
we've
got
you
know.
We've
got
this
scheme
as
we
we
point
out.
This
is
a
program
we
inherited
and
now
we've
got
it.
We
have
to
complete
it
and
many
of
the
patterns
you
know
in
the
plans
that
we
put
in
place
requires
that
we
inherited
and
what
we.
What
we
have
is
something
that
we
have
to
make
work.
We
we
do.
We
do
have
an
element
of
frustration
in
his
current
administration.
A
To
be
perfectly
frank,
because
our
hope
was
that
all
those
questions
around
this
scheme,
all
the
safeguards
against
cost
overruns,
making
sure
that
sufficient
contingencies
were
placed
on
the
budget,
would
have
been
raised
at
the
beginning
of
the
program
not
less,
not
least
by
scrutiny
Charlie
when
it
was
coming
through,
so
that
we
wouldn't
pick
up
a
situation
in
which
we,
as
my
grandma,
my
wife's
grandfather,
would
say:
we
have
the
tiger
by
the
tail.
You
can't
let
it
go
because
gonna
get
bit,
but
you
don't
want
to
be
there
necessarily
so
we
have
to.
A
We
have
to
deliver
this
and
we
have
to
make
it
work,
and
we
have
to
trust
that
the
work
done
beforehand
has
put
the
measures
in
place
to
make
sure
that,
as
a
council,
we
are
actually
protecting
her
safeguarding
and
we
could
have
done
a
better
job
of
that
and
you'd
asked
also
about
I.
Just
know
that
in
your
question
as
well,
did
you
mention
about
the
money
being
used
for
affordable
housing
as
well?
A
You
said:
there's
a
27
million
pound
which
could
have
been
used
for
affordable
housing
which,
because
it's
on
record
is
I
mean
it's.
It's
only
fair
to
point
out.
It's
really
important
that
elected
members
help
people
understand
finance.
We
can't
just
switch
money
from
the
metro
bus
into
affordable
housing
gambling,
but.
A
A
What
we
thought
we
had
when
when
when,
when,
when
a
council
signs
offs
a
lot
of
money,
two
hundred
million
quid
worth
of
of
transport
development
you'd
expect
that
all
the
scrutiny
would
have
been
done
in
the
first
instance
to
make
sure
that
the
city
was
protected
and
the
measures
were
in
place
for
these
kinds
of
overruns,
rather
than
coming
in
two
three
years,
four
years
down
the
line
saying
to
a
new
administration
what
you
doing
about.
But
you
know
what
you
doing
about
asking
questions
that
we
should
have
asked
in
the
first
instance.
F
Did
actually
remember,
quite
specifically,
remember
a
meeting
where
we
had
a
previous
price
rise,
where
we
were
specifically
questioning
the
price
rise
and
whether
it
be
any
more
of
them,
and
that
I
can
actually
remember
going
back
to
2010
when
I
was
first
a
councillor
when
it
was
still
called
bus,
rapid
transit
asking?
How
would
you
know
of
this
project
whether
it's
one
particular
go
on
budget
or
one
would
be
a
smooth.
A
Two
solid
propositions
beyond
just
questions
to
make
sure
stuff
actually
was
put
in
writing
and
put
in
place
around
the
project.
It's
about
it's
about
the
effectiveness
of
our
lobbying
as
well.
Right,
I
think
that's
a
really
important
principle
for
genuine
political
leadership
and
see
you
have
a
supplementary
question.
A
A
A
You
know,
as
explained
by
councilor
Cheney's
report,
seeks
authority
to
increase
the
Metro
bus
program
budget,
to
cover
forecast
expenditure
and
to
enter
into
a
memorandum
of
understanding
with
North
Somerset
and
South
Gloucestershire
councils
for
the
purposes
of
adjudicating
on
part.
One
claims
under
the
land
compensation,
Act
1973
we've
now
got
two
continuous
see
this
through,
and
we
we
simply
have
to
make
it
work.
So
I'm
now
going
to
hand
back
to
councillor
Cheney
to
take
this
decision,
which
I
fully
support.
D
A
I
You
Marvin.
Firstly,
this
report
is
about
taking
compulsory
purchase
order
powers
to
stand
behind
the
development
in
broad
mead,
the
further
development
effectively
of
Cabot
Circus.
It's
not
a
report
back
planning
issues.
It's
not
a
report
about
transport
issues,
it's
not
a
report
about
the
retail
mix,
and
so
it
you
know,
questions
and
statements
on
those
things
are
actually
misplaced
in
terms
of
this
is
about
the
compulsory
purchase.
Issues
about
transport
and
planning
are
things
that
need
to
be
taken
up
when
the
plan
come
in.
I
So
this
report
is
about
making
is
about
facilitating
the
development
rather
than
determining
what
actually
happens
within
it.
But
I
will
make
some
broader
comments
if
I
may
I
in
1994
I'm
an
old
man
I
with
the
Bristol
initiative
set
up
that
brought
me
bored.
The
reason
we
set
the
broad
me
border
was
because
we
knew
a
big
out-of-town
shopping
center
was
going
to
be
built
on
the
m5.
I
We
also
knew
that
John
Lewis
had
announced
that
it
was
going
to
move
from
broad
Meade
to
that
outer
tang
shopping
center,
and
it
was
really
important
at
that
point
that
we
responded
that
we
defended
the
the
shopping
area
of
Bristol.
There
been
other
places,
particularly
Dudley,
where
shopping
centers
have
been
built
out
of
Tang
and
the
Tang
centers
died.
I
The
most
sustainable
place
for
a
city
shopping
center
is
in
its
center,
not
on
its
outskirts,
not
on
the
motorway,
not
on
something
with
acres
and
acres
of
car
parking,
but
something
that's
actually
based
within
the
center.
In
the
areas
where
large
numbers
of
people
live,
where
the
majority
of
people
who
travel
to
that
shopping
center
travel
by
bus,
as
do
the
majority
of
the
people
who
actually
work
either
by
bus
or
walking
or
cycling,
and
so
the
the
defense
of
broad
Meade
in
the
90s.
I
And
then
the
development
of
Cabot
Circus
in
the
naughties
was
very
much
about
asserting
as
a
city
that
we
believe
the
center
of
the
city
should
be
in
the
center
of
the
city,
not
on
a
motorway
Junction
and
in
a
sense.
That's
where
we
are
again
today
and
now,
with
the
threat
of
a
massive
extension
of
Cribs
causeway
on
the
motorway
in
South
Gloucestershire,
and
what
we
need
to
be
able
to
do
is
to
continue
to
grow
the
shopping
offer
that
we
have
in
the
center
of
Bristol.
I
We
need
to
be
able
to
grow
and
improve
the
broad
meat
shopping
area
so
that
it's
still
a
destination
for
people
to
come
to.
We
have
to
remember
that,
while
Scripps
calls
way
might
be
quite
convenient
for
people
in
North
Bristol
for
people
in
South
Bristol,
it's
a
complete
nightmare
to
get
to
and
we
want
a
shopping
center
that
serves
the
whole
city,
not
just
those
who
are
able
to
to
drive
out
to
to
crips
calls
way
and
cat
brain
Hill,
which
the
area
that
it's
in.
What
what
this
proposal
does?
I
Why
we're
proposing
to
take
compulsory
purchase
powers
exactly
the
same
as
we
did
with
the
development
of
of
Cabot
Circus
in
the
in
the
naughties,
is
to
eat
to
further
ensure
that
we
have
that
vibrant
center.
That
is
still
a
place
that
people
want
to
go
to
do
their
shopping
to
it.
Maybe
have
a
day
out
to
have
something
to
eat
and
drink,
to
meet
up
with
friends,
but
there
there
are
other
benefits
this.
The
development
will
create
new
jobs
within
the
center
of
Bristol.
It
will
also
you
know,
speaking
in
a
way.
I
That's
you
know
quite
self-regarding.
In
a
sense,
it
will
increase
the
business
rate
income
for
the
city.
It
will
increase
the
council
tax
income
for
the
city,
and
it
also
what
we're
doing
also
allows
us
to
rationalize
our
lease
arrangements,
which
will
also
save
us
money.
So
this
development
was
in
its
own
right
is
something
that
we
should
be
supporting
and
facilitating
through
taking
these
compulsory
purchase.
A
J
Thank
you
well,
I
support.
The
comments
made
by
the
cabinet
member
I
was
actually
managed
to
arrest
the
the
development
of
Crips
Causeway
when
I
was
cabinet.
Member,
so
I
very
much
support
those
sentiments.
I
you'll,
see
from
the
statement
that
the
Liberal
Democrat
group
supports
this
in
in
broad
terms.
This
is
the
way
we
should
be
going
and,
in
that
respect,
I
again
support
what
councillor
Smith
said,
but
I
want
to
draw
out
two
themes.
J
However
misplaced
they
are
the
first
one
is
that
I
want
and
I
hope
that
this
administration
will
learn
from
the
mistakes
of
the
last
administration.
It
will
not
do
the
Dash
for
Cash,
which
was
the
appalling
response
to
to
when
the
Portland
was,
was
sold
off,
and
it
will
I
hope
also
not
be
thinking
of
the
next
election,
but
perhaps
two
or
three
elections
after
that
and
the
period
of
time
between
those
which
was
what
not
what
the
last
administration
thought
of
at
all.
That's
the
first
thing.
J
The
second
thing
is
I
want
to
draw
out
the
theme
of
boldness
in
supporting
the
compulsory
purchase
order.
What
we're
also
saying
is
that
we
believe
that
this
City
Council
as
a
main
player
in
broad
made
in
in
so
many
respects,
actually
asserts
that
leadership
opportunity
and
becomes
part
of
a
vision
for
this
area,
which
can
then
generate
the
future
income
wealth
and
everything
else.
J
We
want
to
set
up
a
master
plan
of
design
brief
and
then
a
master
plan
we
want
it,
make
it
very
clear
how
broad
Meade
cannot
just
be
a
fantastic
economic
driver
for
the
for
the
future,
but
also
by
reinforcing
the
center
of
Bristol
can
actually
reach
out
to
the
other
parts
of
Bristol
and
strengthen
that
as
well.
This
is
a
gorgeous
opportunity
and
I've
very
pleased.
We've
taken
the
first
step
to
getting
this
right,
but
we
need
an
overview
that
we
can
work
forward
from
from
now
on.
Thank
you.
Thanks.
A
K
Thanks
very
much
Paul
for
that
overview
and
I.
Think
you're,
right,
I
think
you
and
the
council
have
been
pretty
smart
in
the
past
about
the
way
that
we've
tried
to
develop
broad
meet
and
keep
it
incorporated
into
the
heart
of
the
city
and
the
way
that
broad
meet
has
been
defended
from
out-of-town
shopping
centres
and
I.
K
Think,
although
you're
right
that
these
questions
are
probably
more
appropriate,
procedurally
further
down
the
line,
we're
keen
to
get
the
debate
going
in
the
city
about
what
kind
of
broad
need
we
want
and
is,
and
is
good
good
for
the
city
and
that's
the
spirit
in
which
these
two
questions
are
here.
So
how
we're
going
to
get
the
right
the
right
mix
in
the
in
the
offer?
That's
there.
So
it
is
an
attractive
destination
and
you
talk
about
growing
our
way
out
of
austerity.
K
But
if
we've
got
so
much
congestion
that
we
can't
move
putting
in
extra
car
parking
and
making
it
a
car
destination
and
is
not
going
to
enhance
the
quality
of
the
life
in
the
city
and
will
be
counterproductive
in
terms
of
growth,
because
it
will
have
ground
to
a
halt.
So
we
need
to
be
thinking
imaginatively
and
with
a
green
perspective
about
how
we
have
good
good
quality
of
life,
vibrant
city
centre,
but
which
isn't
just
based
around
the
car.
I
A
Decide
to
that
Joe,
so
we
you
know,
we've
pulled
a
whole
bunch
up.
There's
two
things:
I
would
suggest
avenues
you
could
pursue.
One
is
with
the
congestion,
Task
Group,
I.
I'd
say
why
not
put
some
thoughts
together
around
that
and
feed
it
in,
because
we
want
the
congestion,
because
that's
not
just
labor,
it's
not
just
any
party
offs,
not
just
you
know,
people
from
work
across
the
city.
Taking
these
challenges
on
about
how
we
have
movement
and
fluidity
and
access
and
again
about
connectivity.
So
you
know
take
the
opportunity
to
feed
into
that.
A
You
know.
You'll
also
see
opportunity
soon
to
begin
feeding
into
the
the
city
plan.
So
we've
got
some
people
come
in
and
we'll
really
drive
a
a
single
city
plan
and
what
we
want
to
do
is
write
out
the
city's
narrative
over
the
next
50
years
and
that's
a
really
challenge
right.
What's
it
gonna
be
like
for
housing
in
Bristol
in
communities?
What's
it
gonna
be
like
for
health
and
well-being?
What's
going
to
be
the
journey
on
education
and
skills?
What's
it
gonna
be
like
on
transport
and
connectivity?
A
We
want
to
do
democracy
and
human
relations.
We've
got
the
working
working
title,
the
others
about
sustainable,
inclusive
economic
development.
So,
within
those
plans,
many
of
those
themes
and
those
principles,
you
can
absolutely
feed
into
those
to
make
sure
that
these
things
are
anchored
in
and
and
are
considered
within
within
that
debate.
So
we
want
the
first
iteration
at
the
festival
of
the
future
city,
not
a
complete
thing,
but
just
so,
we
can
see
how
we
might
structure
right
in
a
single
city
plan
to
pull
those
those
dynamics
together.
Alright,
so
they'll
be
opportunity.
K
L
A
M
This
is
a
bit
of
an
advert
really,
but
to
see,
though,
the
developers
who
were
working
with
and
what
they've
done
there
at
Victoria
Gate
in
the
last
year,
which
is
stunning
and
I,
think
the
important
thing
and
the
thing
that
people
recognise
is
that
the
offer
of
shopping
in
the
city
centre
is
much
wider
than
shopping.
As
Paul's
already
said,
it's
about
the
cultural
offer
it's
about
somewhere
to
spend
a
day,
there's
other
things
to
do
than
just
shopping
and
how
you
knit
that
into
the
fabric
of
the
city
is
really
important.
M
But
these
things
are
incremental.
Aren't
they
so
in
my
previous
portfolio,
in
March,
I
brought
a
report
to
this
cabinet
about
consolidating
the
leases,
and
this
is
the
next
stage
having
done
that,
but
it
is,
there
is
a
timescale
on
it,
as
jerome
has
said,
and
we
do
need
to
to
move
on,
but
also
to
do
that
in
an
inclusive
way.
M
Now
is
how
important
it
is
both
for
jobs
and
the
economic
impact
for
people
who
work
in
in
retail
and
in
the
city
centre
as
much
as
it
is
an
offer
for
those
who
visit
and
in
terms
of
the
importance
for
South
Bristol,
particularly
just
anecdotally,
a
member
or
residents
in
our
Ward,
said
to
me
recently
about
cribs
Causeway.
She
lives
in
heart
live
that
she
can
get
to
Spain
quicker
than
she
can
get
to
cribs
Causeway,
and
it's
it's
actually
true.
A
Thank
you
very
much
Helen
and
an
indecorous.
Okay,
okay!
Well,
I,
really
appreciate
that
those
contributions
and
for
the
questions
raised.
So
this
report
seeks,
in
principle
agreement
for
the
council
to
use
the
compulsory
purchase
order
powers
if
necessary,
to
enable
the
redevelopment
of
Callao,
Hill
Court,
improved
me
so
to
be
clear
force,
EPO
is
needed
and
all
the
preconditions
have
been
met.
Then
the
decision
would
be
brought
back
to
cabinet
for
final
resolution.
A
So
the
broad
me
development
at
Cala
hill
Court
will
help
deliver
the
council's
corporate
strategy,
which
states
we
must
retain
the
primacy
of
the
city
centre
as
the
core
retail
and
cultural
heart
of
the
West
of
England,
and
it
will
enable
the
delivery
of
a
major
site
allocated
in
the
Bristol
local
plan.
So
I'm
now
going
to
hand
back
to
a
councillor
Smith
to
take
the
decision
which
I
fully
support.
A
I
Thank
You
Marvin
like
to
thank
the
the
comments
that
were
made
today.
I'd
love
to
know
what
bus
it
is.
She
gets,
Spain,
Islanders
and
and
just
quickly
to
just
to
respond
to
Antony
I
know
I'm
supposed
to
respond
to
statements
is
I
think
the
points
he
makes
are
very
well
made.
This
isn't
about
an
election
and
you
know
actually
broad
meters
in
my
ward,
so
you
could
argue
that
it's
more
about
an
election
for
me
than
anyone
else.
I
It's
actually
about
the
city
is,
and
it's
not
about
what
I'm
saying
the
next
few
months
or
next
few
years
is:
what's
happens
over
the
next
few
decades
and
it
isn't
about
a
dash
for
cash.
You
know
so
I
think
the
comments
you
make
are
sort
of
well
made
and
also
I
thank
Jerome
for
the
for
the
questions
and
obviously
thanks
the
Holland's.
We
could
keep
passing
this
one
between
us
Helen,
but
in
conclusion,
in
terms
of
the
decisions
to
be
made
today,
I
approve
the
recommendations
are
set
out
in
the
report.
I
A
You
very
much
Paul
appreciate
that
work.
You've
done
on
that
I
knew
Helen
for
the
work
went
beforehand.
So
the
next
up
is
agenda,
item
11,
which
is
a
clean
air
action
plan
and
the
clean
air
zone
feasibility
study.
Now,
as
explained
that
we
started
a
meeting,
I've
asked
councillor
hands
to
defer
the
decision
today
because
of
the
further
work
that
needs
to
be
done
to
make
sure
we
get
this
right
so
before
I
go
on
trial,
for
you
a
minute
or
so
fee.
If
you
want
to
say
something
about
this
I
think.
N
N
So
as
this
is
a
certain
amount
of
legal
issues
going
on
there,
I'm
going
to
keep
my
comments
to
myself,
but
we
are
going
to
come
back
and
also
just
to
point
out
that
councillors
and
members
of
the
public
who
made
statements
to
as
we
will
endeavour
to
get
back
to
you
and
absorb
those
comments
and
remarks,
then
the
report
that
will
be
forthcoming
in
a
few
months
telling
I
was
keeping
my
comments
to
a
minimum.
You
know
what
legal
things
like
thanks.
A
Free
so
I
mean
obviously
outside
this
meeting.
People
can
come
and
talk
to
fee
and
myself
about.
What's
going
on
and
within
the
bounds
of
what
we're
able
to
say,
we
will
share
with
you
and
obviously
we
have
a
an
officer
team.
You
can
go
and
speak
to
also
so,
although
fees
and
taking
a
decision
today,
what
I
thought
we
we
had
a
little
discussion.
A
What
we
thought
we
could
do
is
not
take
questions,
because
there
is
we're
not
bringing
anything
forward,
but
because
people
have
come
here,
we
thought
that
we
should
give
people
the
opportunity
to
make
statements
that
have
brought
statements.
But
what
I
would
also
say
is
you
may
want
to
defer
your
statement
until
what
the
papers
actually
hear,
but
we
want
to
make
space
for,
if
you'd
like
to
do
that.
So,
if
I
just
go
through
names,
and
if
you'd
like
to
to
make
a
statement
about
this
now,
UB
you'd
be
welcome.
O
Low-Income
people
are
not
those
responsible
for
the
problem
being
caused
in
the
first
place
and
there's
obviously
ways
in
which
we
need
to
make
sure
that
any
charging
proposal
was
recognizing
the
impact
on
low-income
people
in
the
city
and
also
whether
it's
possible
now
with
the
deferral
to
consider
that
among
the
options
and
we're
keen
as
part
of
to
contribute
and
help
our
members
to
engage
in
the
rest
of
the
process.
Thank
you.
Thank.
P
P
Think
is
everybody's
acknowledged.
A
lot
of
the
detail
will
now
have
to
wait,
but
the
principles
of
what
we
were
arguing,
I
think
still
stand.
We
are
concerned
that
this
will
have
a
detrimental
impact
upon
the
employment
and
futures
of
people
on
low
incomes,
people
who
are
already
trapped
in
poverty.
We're
also
concerned
to
make
sure
that
we
look
to
the
future.
P
One
of
the
things
that
is
happening
in
this
city
right
now
is
to
look
at
the
opportunities
coming
out
of
the
Faraday
initiative,
because
we
do
have
the
largest
battery
storage
facility
in
the
country
at
this
moment,
we'll
be
overtaken
next
week.
No
doubt
we
have
two
universities.
Discussions
are
in
hand
and
I
know
that
the
council
is
now
looking
to
join
into
those
discussions.
A
Q
That,
although
from
the
green
group
we've
been
calling
for
action
on
our
quality
and
any
delay,
is
disappointing,
I
would
just
like
to
say
that
we
support
your
decision
to
make
that
delay,
because
it's
better
to
get
things
right
than
to
face
a
legal
challenge
somewhere
further
down
the
road.
So
we'd
give
our
support
to
that
yeah.
A
J
I
think
the
comments
are
still
relevant
to
what's
going
forward.
I
think
we've
got
to
learn
again
from
what
we
did
with
the
residents
parking
zone.
Clearly,
this
is
the
clean
air
zone
has
got
to
be,
there's
got
to
be
a
business
case,
thrown
it's
actually
got
to
wash
its
face
and
make
sense
that
the
trouble
with,
of
course,
the
residents
parking
zone
is
it
started
off
that
way
and
then
became
a
cash
cow
and
at
the
previous
administration
and
I
wouldn't
want
this
to
be
to
be
used.
J
That
way,
this
is
too
important
for
that.
The
other
thing
I
wanted
to
say,
is
in
getting
the
balance
right
and
I
very
much
hear
the
points
about
this
affecting
people
on
lower
income
in
getting
the
balance
right.
There
I
think
it's
got
to
be
clear.
That
we've
got
to
also
look
at
the
longer-term
issues
are
trying
to
bring
in
more
carrots.
So
you've
mentioned
the
electric
charging
points
in
the
report
and
I.
J
Think
that's
a
that's
a
good
step,
although
it
did,
it
didn't
seem
as
if
it
was
getting
me
a
massive
impact,
but
the
other
things
are
that
we
have
got
to
get
and
how
many
of
us
have
said
this.
How
many
times
a
year
we
have
got
to
get
the
bus
service
and
the
train
service
working
in
the
city
so
that
it
will
actually
give
people
passengers
a
real
alternative
to
having
to
come
into
this
area,
and
that's
something
we've
got
to
work
on,
and
so
it
is
with
our
freight
distribution
as
well.
J
I
think
I'm
very
saddened
by
the
sort
of
the
way
we've
slightly
clomp
climbed
down
over
the
freight
consolidation
centre.
Although
I
realize
that
was
to
actively
in
there
as
a
player,
it
has
sent
the
wrong
messages,
and
this
is
at
a
time
when
we
really
need
to
get
this
much
more
effective
than
it
has
been
for
the
last
few
years.
So
it
is
important
we
get
this
right.
J
So
please,
in
in
moving
up
to
the
next
stage
and
I
welcome
as
well
that
counsel
commonly
said
moving
up
to
the
extort
a
scheme,
but
it
actually
has
a
much
much
wider
reach
and
we're
looking
at
ways
of
making
that
scheme
workable
by
offering
real
alternatives,
and
some
of
these
are
going
to
have
to
be
fairly
bold.
Thank
you.
N
Just
finally,
the
report
that
was
proposed
and
the
one
that
will
come
back
in
the
fullness
of
time
is
not
a
proposal
to
make
any
kind
of
charging
scheme.
What
it
is
proposing
is
that
we
look
at
the
impacts
that,
for
different
charging
schemes
would
have
socially
economically.
No
decisions
would
likely
to
be
made
sort
of
addresses,
Stewart's
point
to
a
degree
we
would
be
looking
rather
than
just
guessing.
N
We
are
paying
very
highly
qualified
consultants
and
using
the
university
of
the
west
of
england
to
make
sure
that
we
have
all
the
information
we
need
to
leaders
on
to
make
a
recommendation.
So
we're
not
anywhere
near
the
recommendation
stage.
We
are
simply
looking
to
ascertain
the
facts
that
was
and
addressing
Anton's
point.
Yes,
we
are
looking
at
a
wider
range
of
issues,
but
you
need
quite
right.
N
One
scheme
will
not
fit
all
I
mean
looking
at
very
large
neuroses,
including
the
freight
consolidation
center
and
its
use,
and
we're
working
together
trying
to
expand
that
so,
but
the
point
I'm
making
about
charging
is,
we
are
not
looking
to
recommend
a
charging
zone.
At
this
point,
we
are
looking
to
find
out
what
impact
it
would
have
on
congestion
on
traffic
flows,
on
air
quality,
on
the
social
and
economic
impact
on
this
city.
Just
to
be
clear,.
A
A
I
Thank
You
mayor
I'm,
not
this.
This
is
almost
an
embarrassing
report.
Really
it's
a
bit
of
it
is
so
it's
not
one
where
I'm
going
to
be
making
a
big
thing
about
how
dreadful
which
we
know
is
that
rough
sleeping
is
but
just
to
really
present
the
report.
Basically,
there
are
three
elements
to
this
report.
One
is
allowing
an
extension
of
the
existing
contracts
for
two
years.
I
The
reason
we're
doing
this
is
it's
basically
a
tidying
up
exercise
from
a
cabinet
report
in
2013,
where,
although
the
main
report
included
the
extension
in
the
in
the
text
of
the
report,
it
didn't
include
it
in
the
recommendation,
so
we're
basically
sort
of
putting
that
right
and
I.
Think
what's
also
important
to
say,
is
you
know
we
think
extending
the
contract
at
this
stage
is
absolutely
crucial.
I
There's
a
lot
of
work
going
on
from
a
wide
range
of
players,
both
the
long
term,
traditional
players
within
the
homelessness
field
and
new
players
that
have
been
brought
in
through
the
work
of
the
of
the
city
office
and
people
are
collaborating
to
get
there
really
really
well
and
there's
a
whole
system
review
going
on.
The
absolute
worst
thing
we
could
do
is
completely
disrupt
that
work
by
forcing
people
into
competing
against
each
other
for
bits
and
pieces
of
the
contract,
and
also
offering
that
out
to
other
players
who
aren't
part
of
that
system
review.
I
A
L
The
report
cites
the
controlling
migration
fund.
An
immigrant
sleeping
rough
may
have
come
here
illegally
in
their
form
might
be
breaking
the
law.
As
were
aware.
However,
as
is
the
case
with
rough
sleepers,
who
are
UK
citizens,
they
may
also
be
susceptible
to
mental
health
conditions
or
substance
abuse,
and
they,
which
may
mean
they
have
been
unable
to
make
an
asylum
claim,
even
if
they
would
be
eligible
if
supported,
to
apply
in
these
instances.
It
is
important
that
Bristol,
as
a
city
of
sanctuary,
supports
these
people
to
claim
asylum
siloam
if
appropriate.
L
So
the
questions
are.
Can
you
reassure
me
that
the
use
of
this
fund
will
not
mean
tackling
homelessness
by
means
of
rushed
and
unjustified
deportation?
The
data?
Second,
the
data
for
homeless
populations
is
not
entirely
reliable,
given
2015
is
based
on
an
estimate
and
2016
based
on
a
snapshot
style
count.
How
can
we
trust
the
figures
suggested
suggesting
there
was
a
reduction
in
20
by
24%
between
2015
and
2016.
I
Okay,
thank
you
that
those
are
obviously
two
very
different
questions
requiring
slightly
different
responses
in
terms
of
the
first
one.
The
the
short
answer
is
no,
that
I
guess
the
longer
answer
series
you
know,
I
I
would
expect
the
services
that
we
offer
as
the
counselor
and
the
services
offered
by
our
partners
in
dealing
with
rough
sleeping
are
founded
in
compassion
rather
than
some
some
retribution,
and
you
know
there
will
be
people
who
are
asleep
in
who,
in
a
strict
legal
sense
shouldn't
be
here,
our
part
of
our
role.
I
There
needs
to
ensure
that
they're
getting
suitable
advice
and
support
from
the
agencies
that
can
help
them
either
make
a
claim
or
establish
what
claim
they
may
or
may
not
have
to
continue
in
to
reside
in
this
in
this
country.
In
terms
of
the
second
question,
I
mean,
unfortunately
data's.
My
thing
right.
K
I
No
such
thing
as
reliable
data-
it's
just
some
data-
is
more
reliable
than
others,
and
there
will
always
be
methodological
issues
about
how
accurate
data
is,
and
we
know
we
all
know
that
whatever
the
rough
sleeper
came
counts.
There
are
a
large
number
of
people
that
it
will
miss
so
it'll
miss
people
who
are
sofa
surfing
or
temporarily
Frank
somewhere
to
stay
people
in
empty
buildings
that
we
haven't
gained
access
to
people
who
are
squatting,
people
that
we
just
can't
find
so
I've
been
I've,
been
really
careful.
I
I
Sometimes
the
methodology
changes
as
well
I've
tried
to
be
very
careful
not
to
say,
oh
look,
there's
a
X
percent
reduction
or
an
X
percent
increase.
It
might
just
be
that
the
number
of
people
that
we've
managed
to
count
between
one
count
and
another
has
changed
slightly.
That
doesn't
necessarily
mean
that
the
underlying
problem
itself
has
changed
and
at
the
moment
I
think
our
gut
feeling
is
that
the
underlying
problem
is
getting
worse.
I
Irrespective
of
what
the
figures
tell
us,
and
so
they
are
the
numbers
that
are
published
in
the
rough
sleeper
Kane,
in
conclusion,
are
not
the
kind
of
people
rough
sleeping.
They
are
an
indicator
of
the
number
of
people
sleeping
rough
based
on
how
many
we've
been
able
to
count
at
the
time
at
which
the
Kang
is
done.
I
L
I
L
A
Can
again
did
the
group
around
rough
sleeping
did
get
together
after
than
they're
in
review,
because
they
tried
to
get
a
hundred
beds
for
a
hundred
days
and
I
know
that
the
the
work,
the
faith
groups
they
provided
twelve
beds
between
them,
that
they
never
provided
before
so
for
12
individuals
moved
around
for
those
those
weeks
that
they
were
open.
So
again
we
can
find
out.
But
again
you
know
with
things
like
this
there's
work
can
be
done
in
between
time.
A
L
I
I
That
let
me
answer
the
question
involved
in
the
rough
sleeper
work.
Jasper
and
his
project
have
come
into
that
tent,
which
is
great,
and
yes,
they
are
working
with
some
mangoes
and
some
mangoes
are
working
with
them.
We're
also
working
with
Jasper
to
see
if
we
can
find
another
site
in
council
ownership
that
he
can
use
for
containers
within
the
city,
but
containers
on
their
own
I
mean
I
get
an
email
every
week.
I
You
know
it's
either
pop-up
Homes
containers
or
all
sorts
of
weird
and
wonderful
things
that
caravans
that
we
could
use
as
the
solution
to
rough
sleeping
within
the
city.
I
mean
all
of
those
things
might
help
they're
all
sort
of
sticking
pass
plaster
solution.
You
know
this.
Why
we're
working
in
the
long
term
are
making
sure
that
there's
more
counter
housing
in
this
city?
I
That's
how
we're
failing
so
there's
quite
a
lot
of
work
to
do,
but
there's
a
lot
of
energy
around
this
and
lots
of
new
resources
being
brought
in,
of
which
Jasper's
project
is
one
of
many
of
those.
It's
not
it's,
not
the
only
one
it
is
helping,
and
there
are
many
others
that
are
helping
as
well
and
as
far
as
we
were.
All
of
those
projects
are
working
with
each
other,
which
has
been
a
big
change.
I
say
I
mentioned
when
we
had
a
major
report
at
the
last
cabinet
meeting.
I
Is
that
you
know
one
of
the
big
things
through
both
through
the
city
office,
but
also
I,
think
through
a
realization
that
this
is
the
only
way
to
do
it,
that
all
of
the
agencies
are
working
together,
so
that
we
can
make
the
maximum
benefit
of
the
different
types
of
resources
that
they
bring.
But,
ultimately
we
need
a
lot
of
the
welfare
reforms
to
be
removed
which
are
forcing
people
in
homelessness.
We
need
more
affordable
housing
and
also
we
need
an
injection
of
resources
into
the
health
and
social
care.
I
A
Thank
you,
Paul,
thank
you
Cleo
and
then
so.
Clearly,
let's
pick
this
up
outside
here
as
well.
Come
forward
joining
that
piece
of
work.
We've
been
going
that
that
group
to
key
with
the
city
office
and
we've
begun
to
I
mean
Paul's,
obviously
come
out.
They've
come
out
of
this,
all
all
guns
blazing,
but
and
we've
really
started
to
pull
people
together
in
the
autumn
last
year.
A
So
there's
a
whole
group
of
people
who
are
working
together
but
from
getting
houses
built,
but
also
on
how
we
tackle
the
housing
crisis
facing
the
most
vulnerable
people
in
the
city
you'd
be
welcome
to
come
and
contribute
to
that.
Okay,
thank
you.
So
what
I
need
to
do
now
is
is
offer
it
up
to
any
other
panel
members
who
might
like
to
comment.
A
Tackling
Bristol's
homelessness
crisis
is
one
of
the
key
objectives
of
the
17
to
22
corporate
strategy.
The
services
to
be
delivered
will
fit
with
Bristol's
existing
strategic
approach
to
preventing
homelessness
and
they're.
Preventing
homelessness
strategy
has
six
key
objectives,
for
these
are
directly
relevant
to
the
rough
sleeper
service
and
other
related
programs
being
funded
by
the
DC
Algie,
so
the
service
and
the
additional
DC
Algie
funding
also
aligned
with
the
early
intervention
approach,
one
of
the
three
key
objectives
in
the
housing
strategy.
A
G
You
so
fairly
unconscious
items
say
we
all
whiz
through
as
quickly
as
possible,
but
it
it
does
have
a
few
positives
for
our
local
schools.
This
report
seeks
to
initiate
the
procurement
for
access
to
an
online
recruitment
service
by
the
local
authority
on
behalf
of
our
schools.
This
contract
would
provide
a
discount
to
schools
that
would
not
be
available
if
the
contracts
were
entered
entered
into
separately.
G
The
crew
recruitment
of
high
quality
teaching
and
non-teaching
staff
in
Bristol
schools
is
a
critical
element
of
meeting
our
ambition
to
give
all
children
the
best
start
in
life
and
reduce
inequality
in
the
city.
We
also
aspire
to
increase
the
diversity
of
the
school
workforce.
This
contract
supports
schools
to
attract
from
national
fields
for
their
vacancies.
The
recruitment
and
retention
of
a
high
quality
workforce
in
our
schools
is
also
a
priority.
As
of
us
as
a
learning
a
city,
all
schools
need
to
be
able
to
recruit
staff
and
the
costs
of
advertising
jobs.
G
G
Trading
with
schools
is,
is
the
broker
in
this?
Is
this
contract,
so
trading
with
schools
is
a
department
within
our
Education
and
Skills
division,
and
it
offers
a
wide
range
of
services
to
both
local
authority,
maintain
schools
and
academies
in
this
instance,
its
acts
as
a
broker,
and
is
able
to
negotiate
favorable
pricing
for
schools
and
attract
supplier
rebates,
which
contribute
to
the
next
net
income
trading
with
schools.
It
is
currently
one
of
our
most
popular
services.
G
The
original
contract
was
break.
Brokerage
in
2013
provides
value
for
money
for
the
schools
and
that's
why
we're
seeking
to
have
a
new
contract,
as
currently
we
have
over
a
hundred
and
forty
schools
and
academies
purchase
through
this
product
on
an
annual
basis.
It
is
completely
self
financing.
We
have
a
small
markup
on
the
price
but
and
I
think
we
see
something
like
fourteen
thousand
a
year
estimated
profit
on
this
book.
This
is
not
about
making
money
for
the
local
authority.
G
It's
about
giving
the
value
for
money
and
a
discount
to
our
local
schools
in
a
time
where
every
penny
counts.
So
a
new
procurement
exercise
is
now
required
for
the
schools
recruitment
contracts,
as
many
schools
have
indicated
that
they
wish
to
continue.
The
contract
will
be
a
framework
contract
for
an
initial
period
of
three
years,
with
your
option
of
going
to
a
fourth
year,
and
the
contract
will
continue
to
be
open
to
all
Bristol
City
Schools,
whether
maintained
or
Academy.
G
The
procurement
exercise
will
use
an
open
tender
process
and
appoint
to
suppliers
to
the
framework
which
schools
and
can
access,
depending
on
their
requirements.
Terms
and
conditions
for
this
contract
will
be
set
out
to
ensure
that
schools
can
commit
to
purchasing
a
recruitment
package
on
an
annual
basis
at
the
start
of
each
financial
year.
So
there
is
no
risk
to
the
schools
they
can
opt
in
and
out
of
this
on
an
annual
basis.
There
is
also
no
risk
to
BCC
financially,
as
even
if
take-up
reduces
the
contract
does
not
include
any
penalties
for
this.
G
A
You
very
much
Claire
now
on
this
item.
We've
had
no
statements
and
we've
had
no
questions.
I
just
want
to
offer
it
up.
If
there
are
any
comments
from
other
cabinet
members,
did
you
get
that
you're
gonna
speak?
No?
Okay?
Okay!
Thank
you.
It's
just
to
say
that
actually,
this
question
of
recruitment
comes
up
time
and
time
again:
I
I'm
sure
they'll
be
groups,
but
in
a
particular
piece
of
work.
G
A
Thank
you
very
much,
Claire
I'm,
and
just
let
you
know
we
do
have
quite
a
few
volunteers.
I
know
some
networks.
I
have
we're
really
trying
to
mobilize
to
come
and
support
specific
schools
as
well.
I
love
that
to
support
the
teaching
staff
in
a
city
in
the
face
of
the
challenges
that
we're
all
facing
at
the
moment.
So
I
appreciate
your
leadership
on
this.
So
as
explained
by
cancel
the
his
car
trading
with
schools
is
a
department
within
Education
and
Skills,
which
offers
a
wide
range
of
services
to
schools.
A
La
maintain
schools
and
academies,
and
this
report
seeks
to
initiate
the
procurement
for
a
contract
for
access
to
an
online
recruitment
service
by
the
authority
on
behalf
the
schools.
This
would
provide
discount
to
schools,
which
would
not
be
available
if
the
subscriptions
were
entered
into
separately.
A
The
recruitment
of
high
quality
teaching
and
non-teaching
staff
in
Bristol
schools
is
a
critical
element
of
meeting
more
mayoral
ambitions
and
all
of
our
ambitions
to
give
all
children
the
best
possible
start
in
life
and
reduce
inequality
and
raise
social
mobility
and
in
a
city
so
I'll
now
hand
back
to
cancel
his
got
to
take
the
decision
which
I
fully
support.
Thank.
G
A
You
very
much
Claire
that
wasn't.
Okay,
next
up
is
agenda
item
14,
which
is
which
is
for
me-
and
this
is
a
rounded
department
for
transport
grant
funding.
Now,
let's
to
bring
you
up
to
speed.
We've
submitted
for
bids
to
the
Department
for
Transport
to
fund
separate
transport
projects
and
approval
is
sought
to
accept
funding
and
deliver
these
schemes
should
Bristol
City
Council
be
successful.
A
So
just
to
give
you
an
outline
here
bid,
one
was
was
for
around
the
temple
quarter:
east
access
for
4.9
million
pound
of
DFC
funding
so
to
improve
key
junctions
along
the
length
of
the
feeder
road
as
well
as
Aven
street
temple
way
bid.
Two
with
Weka
was
for
4.6
million
of
DFT
funding
to
improve
several
strategic
traffic
signal
sites
across
the
sub
region,
including
lower
maudlin
upper
model
industry.
A
Three
with
the
Weka
was
a
challenge
fund
along
the
a
four
and
A
four
one:
seven
four
strategic
routes
scheme,
which
is
for
five
million
pounds
of
department
for
transport
funding
to
enhance
the
road
surface
along
the
a
fall
from
the
Keynsham
bypass
bath,
road,
a
four
and
seven
for
linking
to
the
new
south
Bristol
link,
Road
and
Bristol
Airport,
and
bid
for
game
with
wrecker.
For
three
point:
three:
five
million
of
DFT
funding
sought
to
introduce
a
package
of
flood
resilience
measures
for
Scotland
lane
din
stock.
A
A
The
cabinet
of
up
being
updated
on
for
bids
Department
for
Transport
to
fund
for
separate
transport
projects,
but
in
respect
of
both
a
successful
DFT,
Challenge
Fund
bids.
Formal
approval
is
now
required
to
accept
this
grant
funding
and
to
commence
the
livery
of
these
schemes,
which
will
bring
significant
benefits
to
the
city.
So,
in
terms
of
the
decisions
we
made
today,
I
prove
the
recommendations
are
set
out
in
the
report
and
in
making
the
decision
I've
taken
into
consideration
the
consultation
responsive
that
have
been
set
out
in
the
report.
A
D
Marvin
last
month,
I
bought
the
p2
budget,
monitor,
which
predicted
a
nine
point:
1
million
pound
overspend
at
the
end
of
the
year
at
Period.
Three,
the
monitor
is
reporting
a
projected
eight
point:
five
million
over
spend,
whilst
it's
preferable
to
come
back
with
a
slightly
reduced
figure
from
last
month.
There
is
a
worrying
trend
in
some
budgets,
particularly
the
people
directorate,
with
predicted,
spend
continuing
to
rise,
despite
putting
an
additional
17
million
into
the
budget.
This
year
we
are
continuing
to
struggle
with
the
increasing
cost
of
adult
social
care
packages.
D
Lots
of
work
is
going
on
to
try
and
address
the
systemic
issues
in
the
social
care
market,
but
in
the
short
term,
we're
facing
an
ongoing
crisis
in
social
care
that
the
government
appear
unwilling
to
address
in
any
meaningful
way.
The
people
budget
accounts
for
nearly
70%
of
the
council
spend
so
inevitably
pressures
here
are
always
significant,
and
while
this
pressure
continues,
it
squeezes
the
rest
of
our
budgets
forcing
us
into
having
forcing
us
it's
having
to
make
more
difficult
and
unpalatable
decisions
in
the
air
year
on
year.
D
What
this
means
for
this
year
is
that
a
number
of
management
actions
will
be
required
to
address
this,
and
these
are
being
worked
up
as
we
speak
and
I'll
bring
them
back
to
the
camera.
September
cabinet
meeting
it's
important
to
emphasize
that
these
are
early
projections
and
reflects
the
council's
ongoing
commitment
to
good
financial
management
and
stronger
governance
arrangements
compared
to
this
time
last
year.
D
I'm
more
assured
that
effective
processes
are
now
in
place
that
identify
any
potential
problems
early,
enabling
us
to
put
appropriate
plans
in
place,
including
looking
at
how
we
reduce
spending
elsewhere
and
seeing
where
we
can
make
additional
savings.
So
ask
the
cabinet
to
note
the
recommendations
as
given
on
the
board's
uncertain
in
the
report.
A
R
So
Kay
Marvin
so
I'd
like
to
summarize
four
quick
points.
Firstly,
don't
blame
yourself
Craig
so
much
for
the
adult
social
care.
That's
overspend!
That's
really
down
to
central
government
I'll!
Come
to
that
later
and
I'd
like
to
congratulate
you
all
of
cabinet
and
Finance,
because
I've
I've
got
more
confidence
in
this
year's
numbers
and
in
your
control
over
the
risks.
So
that's
well
done.
R
Number
two
commercialization
I
feel
and
in
my
statement
I've
said
we
should
really
focus
as
much
as
we
can
this
year
and
next
year
on
the
income
generating
areas
we
already
have
those
pearls
within
and
I've,
given
a
list
of
five
I'm
sure
there's
many
more.
The
new
ideas
process
is
good,
but
it's
going
to
take
time
and
I
really
think
and
you've
suggested
that
with
the
batteries
we
should
use
our
universities
and
our
newfound
partnership
to
help
build
our
own
competitive
advantage.
Their
third
point
counts
of
tax
reductions
scheme.
R
You
look
at
the
medium-term
plan.
I
can
understand
why
the
consultations
triggered
I'm
I'm
very
proud.
That
still
supports
our
poorest
and
I
feel
that
it's
cruel,
that
we've
been
forced
to
consult
on
that
it
doesn't
actually
make
a
lot
of
money
for
Bristol
City
Council
because
of
the
extra
administration,
the
extra
debts
or
the
bailiff
costs
and
I
actually
feel
we
should
put
more
effort
into
making
commercialization
work
and,
last
but
not
least,
the
core
city's
green
paper.
R
The
Block
Grant
from
government
is
dropping
to
zero,
we're
not
being
funded
for
adult
social
care.
We,
our
council
and
a
collection
we
pay
over.
A
hundred
million
of
business
rates
back
to
the
government.
I
think
we
need
to
put
that
on
stop.
They
are
acting
they're,
short-sighted,
they're,
acting
like
rogue
landlords,
just
upping
the
rent,
all
the
time,
cities
our
wealth
generators
for
the
country,
they
bring
innovation
and
then
our
most
state
sustainable
locations.
R
A
We
look
forward
to
seeing
you
in
London
I
think
that
you
know
we'd
welcome
this
books
were
made.
I
mean
that
partnership
is
that
is
really
for
us
is
a
step
one
in
a
dialogue
with
government
that
says
you
have
to
take
serious
cities
seriously,
which
I
don't
think
they
necessarily
have
where
they
haven't.
Historically,
we
know
what
a
centralization
of
power
and
finance
in
this
country
that
sees
haven't
been,
given
that
you
respect
that
they
should
have
been
given,
but
now
is
the
time
for
change
rebalancing
of
sovereignty.
So
thanks
for
you,
your
comment.
A
Okay,
so
thank
you
very
much
so,
as
outlined
by
councillor
Cheney,
the
council
approved
budgets
and
Directorate
spending
limits
for
the
1718
financial
year
on
the
21st
of
February
2017.
The
purpose
of
this
report
is
to
inform
cabinet
the
council's
overall
financial
performance
against
revenue
and
capital
budgets
resulting
from
the
second
progress
report,
as
at
the
end
of
June
2017,
but
in
terms
of
the
decision,
the
decision
had
to
be
made
today
cabinet
notes
the
recommendations
as
set
out
in
the
report.
So
thank
you.
A
All
for
staying
with
it
for
these
hour
and
a
half,
that's
the
interface
business
I'm,
going
to
go
out
onto
college
green
now
and
see
who's
out
there
and
I'd.
Invite
you
all
to
to
join
me
and
make
a
collective
statement
on
Charlottesville,
which
is
not
I,
would
say
actually
not
just
an
American
problem.
Issue
of
white
supremacy
is
a
global
problem
and
has
many
manifestations
not
all
violent.
Some
very
subtle
institutional
but
you'll
be
welcome
to
come
out
there
with
us.
Thank
you.
