Thank

Thank
you
leader.
This
paper
is
about
the
highways
have
a
block
site
on
york
road.
It's
really
a
good
news
story.
Back
in
july,
2019
councillor
cooper
took
a
paper
to
executive
board
about
the
the
decision
to
demolish
the
two
highways
housing
high-rise
blocks
in
calibre
area
of
east
leeds
and
following
a
consultation
and
complete
completion
of
option
appraisal
exercise.
E
Since
then,
office
officers
work
with
120
affected
households
to
support
re-housing
compensation
for
the
majority
of
the
existing
residents,
and
this
work
is
nearly
complete,
enabling
the
council
to
prepare
for
demolition
and
clearance
off
the
site.
The
preferred
option
identified
at
the
time
was
redevelopment
with
new
high
density
council
housing
as
a
minimum.
All
the
existing
properties
would
be
replaced.
E
A
small
maze
net
blocker
12
homes
is
next
to
the
tower
blocks,
but
did
not
form
part
of
the
regional
options
review
as
an
investment
had
been
undertaken
on
them
and
they
were
deemed
to
be
sustainable
in
in
the
medium
term
bearing
mind
the
next
improvements
that
you
wouldn't
know:
2030.
E
the
mesonets
have
no
lift
access
and
the
majority
have
a
low
energy
efficiency
ratings
compared
to
modern
standards.
Despite
these
improvement
works,
the
position
has
been
reviewed,
given
the
imminent
demolition
and
redevelopment
of
the
towers
site,
which
will
see
disruption
and
noise
etc
for
the
next
two
to
three
years.
For
for
the
remaining
residents
of
the
twelve
maisonettes.
E
So
I
resided
at
resident
consultation
as
a
result
was
was,
was
consultation
exercise
were
taken
in
may
this
year
and
sure
that
the
majority
of
residents
would
agree
to
a
rehousing
and
compensation
offer.
Although
some
residents,
including
some
who
have
lived
there
for
some
time,
approached
post
their
proposals,
we've
consulted
award
members
and
two
of
the
world
members
of
indeed
being
briefed
and
would
support
rehousing
and
compensation
and
redevelopment
option.
E
Initial
design
and
service
design
and
service
feasibility
has
been
undertaken
and
over
200
new
homes
chair
could
be
could
be
built
on
the
side
to
meet
priority.
Housing
needs
for
the
area.
So
really
the
executive
body's
asked
to
approve
the
proposal
that
will
declare
the
property's
surplus
to
requirements
and
agree
that
they
should
be
demolishing
future
user
part
as
part
of
the
housing
growth
program.
I'll
stop
there
happy
to
take
any
commented
questions.
F
This
is
good
because
it
does
show
leadership
from
the
council
in
terms
of
the
climate
emergency
side
of
things,
and
hopefully
some
of
the
developers
who
might
be
listening
in
today
may
take
a
lead
from
this
and
actually
start
doing
some
of
this
in
their
own
properties
that
they're
they're
bringing
forward
and
particularly
the
use
of
the
lead
standard,
which
is
something
that
I
think
it
would
be
good
if
we
could
try
and
find
something
that
we
could
get
the
developers
to
adopt
of
a
similar
standard
out
there
as
well.
F
But
it's
also
important
because
it's
on
the
edge
of
the
regeneration
area,
the
neighborhood
improvement
area
within
seacroft
as
well.
So
I
think
it
complements
what's
going
on
so
the
questions
I
do
have
and
I
do
apologize
because
I
did
get
fully
briefed
on
this.
But
since
then,
can
you
reiterate
again
the
net
increase
in
housing?
You
would
anticipate
coming
on
the
site.
F
I've
got
a
briefing
earlier
on
this
week
on
a
different
site
and
there
were
a
lot
of
unknown
site
abnormalities.
Are
there
any
risks
that
this
could
occur
here
the
unknowns,
and
then
you
might
say
well
how
do
you
know
about
them?
I
accept
the
logic
of
what
I'm
saying,
but
what
I
mean
is
it
was.
It
was
a
massive
increase
in
costs
of
a
site
elsewhere
in
the
city
was
because
of
the
abnormalities,
and
the
final
thing
is
because
this
is
going
to
be
a
low-cost
running
house.
A
G
Thank
you,
chair,
alan's,
the
first
one
and
then
I'll.
Let
maddie
answer
the
the
last
one
about
the
rent,
so
in
terms
of
the
number
of
properties
on
site
there's
currently
132
homes
in
total,
we
haven't
yet
done
the
detailed
design,
but
we're
planning
and
estimating
there'll
be
somewhere
around
230
to
250
units
on
site,
which
is
quite
a
significant
increase
on
what's
currently
on
site.
G
In
terms
of
the
abnormals
question,
we
don't
know
what
we
don't
know.
I
think,
as
you
just
pointed
out
there,
and
we
need
to
clearly
do
all
the
surveys
and
assessment.
But
as
far
as
I'm
aware,
there's
no
indication.
There
are
significant
problems
at
the
time
being,
but
the
surveys
will
be
will
be
key
to
that
and
I'll.
Let
maddie
answer
the
one
about
the
rent.
H
In
in
terms
of
the
rent,
what
we
generally
charge
for
our
new
build
is
the
social
housing
rent
model,
which
is
generally
around
what
we
charge
normal
tenants
that
are
in
older
type
stock.
So
we
don't
anticipate
that
we
would
have
a
rent
increase
on
on
those
sites.
I
Thank
you
for
getting
which
button
you
question.
I've
been
here
so
long,
thanks,
chair
and
I'd
agree
with
council
anderson
in
terms
of
the
welcome
in
the
paper
and
no
problems
at
all
with
with
with
the
proving
the
proposal.
I
I
I
think
homes
being
brought
forward
with
the
maize
nets,
which
will
take
time
in
terms
of
rehousing
and
consultation,
and
so
it
will
be
several
years
before
we
even
start
working
on
this,
and
I'm
just
wondering
whether
whether
I
know
part
of
this
or
the
majority
of
this
is
making
sure
that
we
can
rehouse
the
tenants
that
are
in
the
existing
in
properties.
I
So
I
just
wonder
whether
we
could
perhaps
take
a
more
more
creative
or
more
imaginative
approach
this
and
simply
getting
them
into
the
the
housing
choice
based
letting
system,
even
though
you
give
them
high
priority,
because
we
know
how
long
that
takes,
and
the
other
impact
of
that
is.
I
It
means
that
other
high
priority
tenants
who
are
in
inadequately
housed
are
having
to
wait
even
longer,
and
they
just
wonder
how
we
approach
re-housing
and
whether
something
that
could
involve
temporary
housing,
the
private
sector,
something
like
that,
could
speed
up
the
whole
process.
So
we
actually
do
then
get
these.
These
houses
delivered
more
quickly
and
it
won't.
It
won't
endanger
our
target,
of
which,
I
think
is
1500
new
council
houses
by
march
2025,
and
I'm
just
wondering
how
these
delays
are
impacting
on
that
that
was.
I
That
was
the
first
question,
the
most
significant
one
I
think,
the
other
one
I
saw
in
the
consultation
for
the
high-rise
tenants,
one
of
the
things
that
came
back
was
they
they
wanted
a
guarantee,
or
some
of
them
would
like
a
guarantee
that,
once
the
new
builds
have
been
finished,
they
can
go
back
there,
and,
although
that
was
highlighted
as
a
request,
I
didn't
see
anything
whether
that
had
been
agreed
or
not.
Thank
you.
H
Yeah,
I
can
answer
just
in
terms
of
the
two
highways
multi-story
blocks.
Each
of
those
blocks
comprise
of
60
households.
At
this
moment
in
time,
every
household,
apart
from
five,
have
been
rehoused
and
the
five
remaining
tenants
have
all
got
offers
and
the
property
they're
currently
in
repair.
So
we
do
anticipate
that
we
will
meet
our
target.
I
think
our
target
was
september
2021
to
clear
the
two
blocks
completely,
and
so
we
will
meet
that
target,
which
then
will
just
leave
us
the
remaining
12
residents
in
the
highways
masonettes.
H
When
we
did
the
consultation
exercise,
there
was
two
residents
that
were
slightly
opposed
to
the
motion
of
redevelopment
and
in
the
end
we
did
give
a
commitment,
as
we
have
done
with
people
who
have
left
the
tower
block
that
once
the
new
build
programme
is
complete,
should
they
wish
to
move
back.
H
We
will
honor
that
commitment
and
also
for
the
12
families
within
the
masonettes,
albeit
the
one
and
two
bedrooms
properties
that
we
are
proposing
to
build,
won't
be
actually
suitable
for
some
of
the
families
that
live
in
the
masonic
because
the
family
make
up
in
size.
So
we
have
and
we
will
honor
that.
I
Bentley
thanks
ryan
thanks
maddie
for
that
answer.
I
accept
that
you
might
you
know
we
might
be
on
target
two
years,
but
come
back
to
my
point
that
we
set
the
two-year
target
because
because
of
the
way
we
do
the
rehousing
and
if
we
had
a
different
approach
to
rehousing
that
that
two
years
may
be
reduced
and
we
could
start
on
site
sooner
and
get
those
new
homes
delivered
sooner.
That's
not
a
question.
That's
a
comment.
A
A
So
thank
you
to
offices,
attended
for
item
we'll
move
on
to
council
hayden's
portfolio,
please
and
item
seven.
D
Thank
you
chair.
So
my
first
item
is
the
british
library
at
temple
works
and
it's
a
really
exciting
and
scheme
that
will
see
the
historic
building
of
temple
works,
being
redeveloped
and
hopefully
used
by
the
british
library
north
to
bring
the
world
to
this
part
of
leeds,
and
I
it's,
I
can't
think
of
a
better
building
for
british
library
who
are
very
enthusiastic
about
coming
to
coming
to
leeds.
D
Well,
they
are
already
in
boston,
spa
and
their
community
work
and
the
ability
of
people
to
access
everything
that
they
hold
in
the
british
library.
D
So
this
is
this
is
helping
to
facilitate
the
british
library
location
to
be
brought
forward
at
the
grade.
One
listed
and
at-risk
temple
works.
People
will
be
aware
of
the
ongoing
risk
that
temple
works
is
under.
Indeed,
it's
on
historic
england's
at-risk
register
and
we
need
to
facilitate
bringing
forward
the
stabilization
of
that
building,
so
that
then
it
can
be
further
developed
and
then
be
a
key.
D
The
key
part
of
the
wider
redevelopment
and
regeneration
of
the
temple
district
and
facilitate
that
area
of
the
south
bank
to
come
forward
from
many
other
developments
so
I'll
leave.
It
there
chair,
thank
you.
A
I
don't
see
any
so
I'm
going
to
turn
to
the
recommendations
on
page
55
and
I
see
that
everybody
is
happy
with
those.
Thank
you
so
we'll
move
on
to
item
eight,
please
councillor
hayden.
D
Thank
you
chair.
So
this
is
the
leeds
pipes,
district
heating
network
and
it's
a
status
update
and
securing
future
growth.
I'm
really
proud
of
the
leeds
pipe
district
heating
network
and
what's
achieved,
and
we
have
2
000
council
flats
that
are
benefiting
from
the
district
heating.
We
have
the
growth
of
all
the
civic
buildings
that
are
online
and
nine
more
organizations
have
come
forward
to
to
want,
and
there
are
many
other
people
making
making
inquiries
and
wanting
to
join
the
scheme.
D
This
paper
does
so
we
are
progressing
better
than
we
forecasted
and
it
will
it's
a
real
success
story
so
just
like
to
thank
everybody.
Who's
been
involved,
especially
doing
the
work
along
the
headrow,
etc,
at
the
same
time
as
a
hedgerow
redevelopment,
so
that
it
wasn't
dug
up
again
and
in
two
separate
times,
which
I
know
was
a
very
complex
piece
of
work
for
the
different
agencies
involved.
D
So
the
the
extension
that
was
extension
three
b,
I
think
it
was
that
was
brought
to
exec
board
in
july
2020,
and
then
we
secured
funding
for
to
the
south
bank
of
the
city.
D
It
is
proposed
that
we
no
longer
go
ahead
with
that
proposal,
partly
down
to
even
better
building
proposals
from
developers
which
reduce
their
need
for
as
much
heat
by
70
percent
because
of
their
carbon
reduction
building
techniques
and
the
the
need
for
less
heat
and
in
those
standards,
which
is
only
a
positive
thing,
but
also
the
the
lack
of
other
customers
around
that
area.
D
And
we
don't-
and
we
don't
want
to
pose
that
as
that
as
a
risk
taking
this
extension
forward
to
pose
as
a
risk
to
leeds
pipe
district
heating
network
in
totality.
So
I
will
leave
it
there.
Thank
you,
chair.
A
F
I
think
this
is
good
moving
forward.
The
only
comments
I
would
make
and
it's
good
to
see
it's
coming
into
profit
quicker.
So
what
do
you
see?
F
You
do
you're
doing
with
profits
once
you
start
generating
the
profits
we've
heard
at
the
climate
emergency
advisory
group
that
we're
needing
billions
to
retrofit.
So
what
are
you
going
to
do
with
this
profit?
Are
you
going
to
reinvest
it
back
in,
or
is
it
going
to
go
into
as
part
of
the
income
to
the
council,
so
they
can
then,
so
other
council
departments
can
benefit
from
it.
F
Where
do
you
see
that
coming
from
and
then
the
other
thing
it
mentions
some
risks
in
paragraph
33
to
37,
and
it
just
occurred
to
me
when
I,
when
I
was
preparing
for
this
meeting,
that's
been
told.
I
was
coming
here
this
morning
that
we've
got
a
risk
and
register
a
night
on
items
12
and
13
in
the
board
here.
Is
there
any
reason
why
we
don't
have
the
risks,
colour
coded
or
marked
more
clearly
as
to
where
they
fit
on
that
table?
F
You
know
as
to
how
likely
are
these
risks,
how
how
damaging
those
individual
risks
might
be?
Is
that
something
that
we
would
consider
putting
onto
a
report
so
that
people
can
understand?
Okay?
It
says
there
is
a
risk
to
x,
y
and
z
in
33
to
37,
but
are
they
likely
those
risks
unlikely
major
risks,
minor
risks?
F
You
know
it
just
so
that
we
can,
because
at
the
end
of
the
day,
what
I'm
coming
to
is
we
don't
want
this
to
turn
into
another
nottingham,
that's
the
point,
and
so,
and
so
we
want
to
keep
a
watching
brief.
That's
the
point
I'm
trying
to
make
is
that
there's
no
indication
that
it's
going
to
turn
into
a
nottingham
by
the
way,
so
I'm
not
suggesting
that
it
is,
but
I
think
we
need
to
safeguard
ourselves
that
that
might
occur.
That's
all
I'm
trying
to
say.
A
Thank
you,
and
I
think
I
would
say
in
terms
of
the
approach
we're
taking
with
this-
is
clearly
we're
ambitious
on
our
climate
ambush
our
climate
policies,
which
is
why
we
started
the
district
heating
scheme
in
the
first
place.
A
But
you
know
in
reference
to
some
other
councils,
we're
in
a
position
where
we're
not
you
know
we,
we
are
checking
and
challenging
all
the
way
along,
and
I
think
that
is
the
right
thing
to
do
to
make
sure
we've
got
a
good
scheme
that
delivers
what
we
want
in
terms
of
climate
and
doesn't
put
us
at
financial
risk,
and
indeed
you
know
he's
making
money
which,
given
the
you
know
the
position
as
the
council
is
vital.
A
I
don't
know
if
polly
or
councillor
hayden
you
want
to
answer
any
of
the
specific
questions.
Polly
would
like
to
come
in.
Please.
J
Yeah
I
just
wanted
to
pick
up
on
councillor
hanson's
point
about
the
profit
and
what
happens
to
that,
and
we
have
an
obligation
to
pay
back
the
capital
quicker
as
a
first
priority,
and
then
we
can
obviously
start
to
look
at
other
options.
But
so
we
are
slightly
limited
in
terms
of
what
we
can
do
with
that.
And
I
think
the
other
point
about
the
risk
is
more
probably
more
of
a
general
governance
point
than
specific
to
this
report.
Although
we
do
obviously
have
a
detailed
risk
register
specifically
for
this
project,.
B
Thanks
yeah,
I
just
wanted
to
add
really
that
I
think
in
terms
of
the
general
role
that
the
council
can
play.
This
is
a
really
good
example
of
trying
to
intervene
in
a
an
ad
infrastructure.
B
That's
that's
relevant
today.
That
can
then
be
used.
You
know
into
the
in
many
years
into
the
future,
and
I
think
you
know
at
the
time
I
remember
at
the
time
we
we
were.
B
You
know,
faced
with
other
other
people
going
down
different
routes
on
the
on
the
enemy
energy
agenda,
and
I
think
this
was
this
was
a
really
good
decision
at
the
time
and
I
think
the
way
it's
structured
we've
tried
to
do
it
in
a
sort
of
bite-sized
way
as
well
to
to
reduce
the
risk
and
and
make
sure
that's
shared
with
the
people
who
you
know
who
take
up
the
offers,
but
the
demand
for
it
is
great,
and
I
think
it's
it's
it's
brilliant
the
way
it's
helped
reduce
fuel
bills
of
some
of
the
poorest
people
in
the
city
as
well.
B
So
it's
it's
a
really
good
example.
I
think
of
how
the
council
can
use
its
wider
role
to
to
have
an
impact
on
on
the
carbon
agenda.
I
Chad,
I
was
going
to
say
something
similar
to
to
tom,
to
be
fair.
I
I
think
this
is
a
super
example
of
civic
enterprise.
Some
joined
up
thinking
to
to
to
address
a
lot
of
the
issues
and-
and
it
also
is
being
done
in
a
measured
way,
not
a
highly
speculative
way,
which
is
which
is
very
welcome,
and
it
really
does
show
the
the
benefit
of
the
decision
that
was
taken
to
go
with
the
incinerator.
I
So
many
years
ago
I
was
going
to
ask
a
similar
question
to
to
counter
anderson
about
the
profits,
whether
they
could
be
ring
fenced
for
reinvestment
into
the
green
economy.
But
polly
has
answered
that
and
something
we'll
wait
for
the
other
question
which
I
asked
at
the
briefing
which
I
haven't
had
a
response
to,
and
I
I
know
it's
perhaps
a
complicated
question
which
I'm
quite
happy
to
wait.
Wait
for
the
response,
but
I'll
just
I'll
just
say
what
the
issue
was
as
a
comment.
I
One
of
the
one
of
the
issues
that
I
don't
haven't
seen
addressed
in
the
papers
on
this
have
come
along
over
the
last
year
or
so
is
the
regulatory
and
competitive
aspect
of
this.
I
there's
no
visibility
that
I
see
in
how
the
prices
are
being
set
in
terms
of
the
rate
of
return
that
we
are
looking
for
and
if
it
came
to
a
regulatory
issue
that
we
were
undercutting
another
energy
supplier
that
there
may
be
an
issue
on
that.
I
If,
if
we
are
saying
well
our
rate
of
return
because
we're
a
local
authority
is
not
it's
not
as
high
as
a
commercial
operator's
rate
of
return
and
having
worked
in
two
highly
regulated
industries
in
my
career,
I
I
you
know.
I
recognize
that
this
can
be
an
issue.
So
it's
just
reassurance
really
that
we
have
looked
at
that
side
of
things,
but
I
I
will
await
the
answer
coming
from
the
team
on
that.
So
thank
you.
A
J
A
J
Can
give
a
kind
of
superficial
answer
now,
but
I
will
have
to
come
back
in
writing
so
that
the
kind
of
quick
answer
is
we
sought
guidance
of
that
at
the
beginning
and
I'm
just
waiting
for
the
full
papers
to
come
back.
So
I
can
give
you
the
full
answer
on
that.
But
yeah
we
looked
at
that
issue
right
up.
A
Front,
thank
you,
council,
haydn
is
anything
you
want
to
come
back
on.
D
D
So
we
are,
I'm
I'm
really
pleased
at
how
the
team
is
managing
how
polly
in
the
team
are
managing
the
risks
and
making
a
real
success
of
this,
because
it
does
tackle
fuel
poverty
and
therefore
food
poverty,
and
and
puts
money
back
in
people's
pockets
of
our
most
deprived
neighborhoods.
So
thank
you.
A
D
Thank
you
chair,
so
this
is
this
paper
is
the
lead
air
quality
strategy
2021
to
2030
and
it
is
and
how
it
contributes
to
the
city
and
council's
ambitions,
especially
around
the
climate
crisis
and
air
quality
in
general.
So
in
october,
2020
leeds
was
determined
as
being
compliant
with
the
legal
limits
of
nitrogen
dioxide
emissions.
D
We
reckon
the
council
recognises
that
we
must
remain
vigilant
in
tackling
emissions
from
transport
and
in
this
respect
it
has
made
significant
progress
and
through
a
range
of
different
different
initiatives,
including
the
e-bike,
the
cargo
bikes
which
I've
had
the
privilege
of
trying
out
and
supporting
businesses
in
going
to
electric
vehicles,
etc.
D
In
the
home,
from
industry,
domestic
and
agricultural
activities,
so
I'm
really
pr-
and
I
want
to
thank
everybody
who
took
steps
to
have
those
cleaning
of
cleaner
vehicles
and
and
I'm
really
proud
that
we
are
at
a
stage
where
we
don't
need,
but
that
we
are
within
legal
limits
and
we
will
keep
a
watching
brief
on
the
air
quality
going
forward.
Thank
you.
F
Again,
totally
support
it.
Just
some
questions,
one
broccoli
main
street
and
pool
was
identified
way
way
back.
I
don't
know:
what's
happened
to
it
because
I've
certainly
not
been
told
of
anything.
Every
time
I
ask
the
can
gets
kicked
down
the
road.
Is
there
anything
you
can
update
me
on
that
today
and,
secondly,
when
do
you
see
more
information
coming
out
on
some
of
the
other
issues
that
you
raised?
F
For
example,
I'm
aware
of
one
of
your
colleagues
who
had
bought
a
woodburn
stove
and
it
questions
whether
or
not
environmentally,
it
was
the
right
decision
that
they
made,
because
there's
a
lot
of
controversy
about
that.
There's
also
a
lot
of
controversy,
certainly
in
my
area
about
smokeless
zones
and
people
having
burning
things
in
their
gardens
and
what
pollutants
that's
going
to
happen.
So
when
do
you
think
you
might
have
more
detail
so
that
we
can
have
a
proper
consultation
with
those
residents
that
are
raising
concerns
with
us
just
now,.
D
Thank
you
I'll.
Let
polly
answer
the
more
technical
of
when
we'll
have
the
information,
and
I
I
am
vote,
I'm
very
aware
about
the
situation
in
poole
and
but
I'll
I'll,
let
polly
later
on.
In
a
little
while
update
you
on
what's
happening
there.
It
is
a
a
kind
of
outlier
in
the
topography
of
of
that
of
the
landscape,
etc.
D
So
it
causes
certain
in
transient
problems
really
on
the
wood
burning
stoves
and
when
we're
going
to
come
forward
with
other
things,
I
have
to
put
my
hands
up
and
in
the
previous
house
I
did
install
a
wood
burning.
Still
I'm
a
coal
miner's
granddaughter
and
you
know
having
an
open
fire
or
indeed
the
soul.
Fire
is
one
of
my
kind
of
comforts
in
life.
I
don't
have
one
in
my
current
house
but
yeah.
D
I
won't
comment
on
anybody
else
and
they're
putting
a
wood-burning
stove
in,
although
I
know
it
was
death
for
compliant,
but
I'll
I'll
ask.
I
do
know
that
I'll
ask
polly
to
come
in
on
the
more
technical
details.
Thank
you.
J
Okay,
so
I
mean
after
today,
the
plan
is
that
we
start
developing
the
sort
of
comms
and
communication,
with
the
aim
that
we
have
something
within
the
sort
of
next
three
to
four
months.
That
comes
out
especially
around
the
wood
burning
stove.
So
I
mean
there's
already
research
available,
but
I
think
there's
less
sort
of
specific
data
around
leads.
So
we're
looking
for
ways
to
to
address
that
in
terms
of
paul
and
wolfdale,
we
have
seen
the
figures
go
down
as
we
have
across
the
whole
city.
I
Chair
again
well
welcome
the
paper
and
everything
that's
being
done
on
this
and
again
I
was
going
to
ask
about
the
wood
burning
stoves.
I
I
in
certain
parts
of
my
ward,
it's
been
the
the
go-to
piece
of
status
symbolism
I
think,
to
have
a
word
burning,
burning,
stove
and
always
on
the
basis
that
it
was
very
environmentally
friendly
and
everything
else.
I
I
could
never
see
see
that
myself
burning
great
chunks
of
wood,
but
never
mind,
but
again
it's
how
we
are
dealing
with
the
problem,
because
I
I
see
wood
burnt
stoves
in
some
respect
becoming
like
the
the
diesel
cars
everyone
flocked
to
buy
diesel
cars
because
they
were
told
they
were
that
they
were
better
for
the
environment
than
petrol,
cars,
etc,
and
then,
all
of
a
sudden,
we
have
all
these
all
the
problems
with
diesel
cars,
and
I
just
wonder
if
we
can
sort
of
get
in
very
quickly
on
this.
I
You
probably
can't
do
much
to
with
with
the
people.
Who've
already
got
them,
but
the
prevention
of
adoption
of
further
ones
may
maybe
the
way
forward
on
that,
but
it
I
I
think
it
it
will
be
a
difficult
one,
and
I
wonder
just
what
lobbying
we're
doing
to
the
government
to
make
this
more
of
a
national
campaign,
because
it
it
is
something
that
affects
everybody.
I
And
the
second
question
is:
is:
is
sort
of
related.
It's
about
on-street
charging
points,
again
lots
of
electrical
cars
being
bought
and
more
and
more
now,
obviously
being
bought
by
people
who
don't
have
driveways
and
off-street
facilities,
and
I
just
wonder
what
the
council's
policy
really
is.
I've
been
very
difficult
to
determine
because
I
know
there's
been
charging
points,
but
it
put
in
hubs
and
count
on
council
land
with
the
expectation.
I
If
someone
hasn't
got
a
charging
point
in
their
house,
they
will
take
their
car
there,
but
I
think,
because
of
many
issues
that
people
have
about
adopt
about
taking
on
an
electric
car
for
the
first
time,
there's
a
sort
of
a
comfort
factor
in
having
one
in
the
street
outside
and
a
number
of
residents.
I've
spoken
to
said.
I
Yes,
we
would,
you
know,
live
living
in
a
house
without
without
a
off
street
facility
saying
I
would
buy
one
if,
if
I
thought
there
was
a
charging
point
close
by
rather
than
having
to
you
know,
rely
on
garages
and
and
everything
else,
and
I
know
the
logic
of
electric
cars
now
with
very
long
capacity.
I
J
Sure
so,
in
terms
of
the
charging
infrastructure,
that
the
kind
of
approach
from
the
council
has
been
much
more
about
hubs
rather
than
specifically
on
street,
because
lots
of
areas
have
restricted
parking
and
where
do
you
put
it
and
does
every
house
have
it?
And
then
you
also
have
to
consider
the
impacts
on
active
transport
if
you
start
to
have
cables
trailing
across.
J
It's
always
counter
some
of
our
other
policies
around
enabling
cycling
and
walking
and
also
disabled
access,
and
we
are
potentially
looking
at
some
on
street
charging,
but
it
not
necessarily
outside
a
house.
It
might
be
more
where
there's
a
cold
deck
and
it
will
be
where
there
is
enough
space,
but
we're
working
closely
with
highways
colleagues
at
the
moment
and
to
see
if
that's
feasible,
whether
we
can
do
pilots,
but
our
preference
is
bigger
hubs
with
rapid
charges
that
are
within.
J
You
know
that
kind
of
close
proximity,
and-
and
ultimately
that
is
what
people
do
at
the
moment
and
but
obviously,
like
you
say,
there's
that
kind
of
psychological
barrier
and
that's
why
we've
got
things
like
the
electric
van
scheme,
where
we're
trying
to
break
down
some
of
those
barriers
and
make
electric
vehicles
kind
of
much
more
common
and
acceptable
and
in
terms
of
you
know,
the
wood
burner
comment.
J
I
I
agree
that
we
need
to
take
action
quickly
in
order
to
prevent
other
people
making
those
decisions,
and
I
think
it
has
been
that
lack
of
information
that
that
drives
people
similar
with
the
diesel
car
scenario
and
which
is
why
we're
keen
to
to
kind
of
increase
the
population's
understanding
of
the
implications
and
that
study
that's
mentioned
in
the
report
shows
that
people
that
have
them
don't
understand
some
of
the
implications
on
their
own
health.
And
so
that
will
be
the
kind
of
focus
of
the
campaign.
J
A
If
there's
no
more
comments
on
this
item,
I'm
going
to
turn
to
the
recommendations
on
page
94
and
I
see
everybody's
agreeing
with
those
so
we'll
move
on
to
my
papers
now
and
the
first
one
is
the
late
paper,
which
is
the
update
on
the
response
and
recovery
plan
on
coronavirus.
It
recognizes
a
number
of
things.
First
of
all,
monday
was
a
lifting
of
restrictions
by
the
government.
A
I
don't
know
if
any
members
of
executive
board
are
out
at
midnight
in
a
nightclub
barry.
You
can
own
up
now
if
you
want,
but
it
was
a
certainly
somewhere.
Certainly,
we've
seen
some
changes
this
week,
but
again
the
messages
that
the
government
and
ourselves
are
giving
out.
If
people
should
still
be
show
some
caution
around
particularly
around
groups
of
people,
we
don't
know
and
don't
normally
mix
with.
A
So
that's
a
step
forward
and
again
our
as
an
organization
we've
reflected
that
reflected
that
advice
and
the
way
we
continue
to
provide
services
for
the
public,
we're
looking
at
again,
maybe
council
r,
if
we'd
like
to
say
a
little
bit
about
the
vaccination
program,
but
certainly
we
continue
to
progress.
The
vaccination
program
in
in
in
in
in
leads
as
well
we're
seeing
good
progress
there.
A
The
final
thing
I
would
say
on
this
paper
is:
we
did
a
not
a
massive
exercise,
but
we
did
a
a
little
bit
of
a
lessons
learned
from
the
initial
response
to
try
and
look
at
our
partnership
working
and
how
we
can
and
take
actually
what
happened
during
the
first
three
lockdowns
and
before
everybody
forgotten,
moved
on
to
other
things,
just
looking
at
how
we
worked
across
ourselves
as
a
council
and
also
with
partners
across
the
city
and
and
and
that's
in
here
in
appendix
a
I
think
I
would
say
in
terms
of
positive
people
recognize
we
very
quickly
got
in
arrangements
to
liaise
and
work
with
ourselves,
other
public
services
and
the
voluntary
sector
and
the
business
sector
in
a
really
positive
way
and
again,
there's
some
recommendations
there
about.
A
If
we
we're
ever
in
this
position
again
about
some
of
the
things
we
could
do
to
do
that
more
effectively.
But
I
thought
it
was
good
that
we
did
that
now,
so
we
got
people
thoughts
before
we
moved
on
so
council
aria.
Would
you
like
to
come
in
please,
yes,.
C
Thank
you,
chair,
yeah.
Look.
It's
really
important,
as
you
said,
that
we
continue
with
the
public
health
advice
to
continue
to
be
cautious
to
where
the
masks
where,
where
it's
appropriate
and
obviously
take
up
the
vaccine
and
chair
tantalizing
yourself
to
1
million
vaccinations,
we're
just
short,
so
that's
the
first
and
second
dose
and
it's
really
a
credit
to
everybody
across
the
city.
C
Who's
worked
towards
that
we
had
the
grab
the
jab
weekend,
where
we
were
in
the
trinity
center,
where
you
could
walk
in,
and
I
understand
from
anecdotally
that
that
went
down
really
well.
So
it's
from
us
from
our
perspective
and
just
carrying
on
with
those
efforts
and
and
just
just
asking
everyone
to
be
to
be
sensible
and
cautious.
Thank
you.
F
Just
a
quick
one,
I
attended
a
meeting
yesterday
of
the
scrutiny
chairs
and
mr
hodgson
has
been
as
good
as
his
word
he's
issued
instructions
as
to
how
we
operate
within
council
meetings.
Now,
that's
good
one
question
on
that
members
of
the
public
attending.
F
Let's
say
it
was
a
controversial
planning
application
where
there
are
have
been
known
in
this
time.
So
where
you
get
a
lot
of
people
coming
in,
it's
been
it's
very
clear.
It's
on
a
first
come
first
serve
basis
which
is
correct,
but
in
terms
of
democracy,
it's
how
do
we
meet
the
two
and
plans
for
that?
But,
more
importantly,
I've
got
a
lot
of
residents
who
are
contacting
me.
Half
wanting
us
to
go
further.
Half
wanting
us
to
you
know,
release
quicker.
F
Are
we
going
to
be
issuing
instructions
or
views
about
going
into
council
buildings
going
into
council
libraries,
for
example?
Are
they
expected
to
still
wear
a
mask?
Are
the
staff
expecting?
Are
the
perspectives
still
going
to
be
up
because
some
staff
want
it
and
some
staff
don't
now
I've
been
a
meeting
recently
where
mr
evans
has
explained
that
staff
are
getting
a
one-to-one?
F
You
know
conversation
as
to
what
their
individual
views
are,
which
I
totally
agree
with.
So
when
are
we
going
to
be
getting
that
we
can
put
something
out
in
the
public
domain,
the
council's
more
general
views
on
how
we
are
expecting
people
to
behave
when
they're
going
into
council
settings
not
necessarily
outside
of
council
settings.
But
these
purely
council
settings.
A
Thank
you,
I
think.
Clearly,
as
a
council,
we
can't
we
can't
change
the
government's
restrictions.
I
think
when
it
comes
to
those
council
facilities
where
people
are
coming
in
we're
still
asking
people,
you
know
to
show
a
little
bit
of
of
caution,
so
we've
still
got
sanitization.
A
We
can't
require
people
to
wear
masks,
but
it's
a
good
idea
and
we'll
have
some
there
for
any
members
of
the
public
that
wish
to
take
one
from
our
supplier
and
there's
still
areas
where
we
have
the
screens
in
place.
I
mean
the
aim
is
to
try
and
deliver
services
as
efficiently
as
possible.
Still
recognizing
that,
like
I
say
in
the
introduction,
there
are
areas
where
people
gather
with
a
lot
of
people.
A
I
don't
normally
gather
with
that,
is
still
a
bit
of
a
risk,
and-
and
that's
where
we
want
to
like
say
just
encourage
people
to
remember
that
we
and
we're
still
very
much
living
with
the
virus
and
increased
infection
rates.
So
that
will
be
that'll,
be
my
view
on
that.
A
Obviously,
it's
day,
three
of
the
reduced
restrictions
and
the
still
some
of
the
workplace
guidance
didn't
come
out
until
two
working
days
before
monday,
so
still
clearly
going
to
be
a
bit
of
work
in
in
progress
on
some
of
these
areas,
and
I'd
be
the
first
to
recognize
that
I
think
in
terms
of
staff
members.
One
of
the
points
you
touch
where
staff
members
have
particular
concerns
or
is
work
being
done
with
staff
members
as
well.
So
that
would
be
my
perspective
on
on
that.
A
I
don't
know
again
on
in
terms
of
public
meetings
again,
the
public
are
welcome
to
come
to
our
meetings
or
to
watch
meetings
on
online
as
well.
So
again,
we
just
need
to
work
through
how
we
continue
to
do
to
do
that
safely.
A
I
take
it
around,
so
I'm
going
to
move
to
the
move
to
the
recommendations,
and
I
see
everybody's
happy
with
those
so
we'll
move
on
to
my
next
item,
which
is
the
annual
corporate
performance
report,
which
is
a
very
comprehensive,
very
comprehensive
document
setting
out
our
our
performance,
ecm
and
clearly
in
some
areas
it's
been
heavily
affected
by
coronavirus
and
the
lockdown
in
some
areas
less.
A
So
I
think
it's
important
that
we
still
continue
to
record
our
progress
moving
forwards
and
look
at
the
areas
need
to
improve.
Like
I
say
it's
a
a
large
document
which
I'm
sure
everybody's
read,
so
I
won't
go
into
much
more
detail
and
see
if
there's
any
comments
on
the
document.
A
I
don't
see
any
so
I'll
move
some
recommendations
on
page
120
on
124
and
cld's,
happy
with
those
and
we'll
move
on
to
my
move
on
to
my
next
item,
which
is
the
annual
corporate
risk
management
report,
which
broadly
touched
on
risk
a
couple
of
times
in
this
meeting.
I
think
we
recognize
in
terms
of
local
government
as
organizations
there's
been
a
a
an
increased
awareness
of
risk
and
scrutiny
around
that
around
local
government
as
a
whole
and
some
particular
councils
in
terms
of
our
position.
A
A
Having
tested
some
of
our
tested,
some
of
the
things
we've
talked
about
in
terms
of
disruption
to
services,
and
things
like
that
during
coronavirus,
it's
been
a
a
chance
to
a
chance
now
to
look
at
our
risks,
going
forward,
we're
still
turning
to
the
table
on
page
four
of
the
reports
and
149
of
the
pack
still
recognize
the
strong
possibility
and
the
disruptive
nature
of
coronavirus
going
forward
and
along
with
a
number
of
other
things,
so
I'll
leave
my
comments
there
and
see.
F
A
number
of
councils
have
been
hit
with
cyber
attacks.
How
are
we
dealing
with
that?
What
are
we
put
anything
special
in
mind?
How
are
we
communicating
to
people
to
take
care
because
some
councils
have
been
hit?
I'm
not
aware
of
leads
being
hit,
so
I'm
talking
about
other
councils
that
have
been
in
the
unfortunate
position.
So
how
are
we
dealing
with
that.
A
We've
been
targeted
but
successfully
successfully
dealt
with
being
targeted,
which
isn't
to
say
we
should
be
complacent,
but
I
think
it
recognizes
that
our
jis
service
have
the
necessary
measures
in
place.
Obviously
it's
a
fast
moving
in
terms
of
the
threats
that
we
receive
on
that
one.
So,
like
I
say
we
do
recognize
it
as
a
a
as
a
significant
risk,
we're
so
reliant
on
it
and
emails,
and
things
like
that
for
the
organizational
services
and
the
council.
A
It
is
a
huge
risk
if
things
go
wrong
but,
like
I
say
it
is
something
we
are
on
top
of
neil.
Would
you
like
to
come
in?
Please.
K
Well,
just
making
your
point:
actually,
we
are
attacked
all
the
time
literally
every
day
and
and
and
we
have
avoided
the
sort
of
problems
which
some
others
have
faced.
I
think
there
are
a
couple
of
points,
though,
for
four
members
one
is
that
actually
that
we
do
need
to
continually
update
our
technology
now
with
patches
and
making
sure
the
security
is
right,
but
historically
we
we
did
things
like
swept
the
assets
where
we'd
keep
something
for
sometimes
decades.
K
That's
just
not
any
longer
possible.
So
and
with
that
cut
does
come,
you
know
significant
in
investment
and
then
the
second
bit.
It
actually
is
just
people
being
very
vigilant
about
actually
how
they
use
I.t
themselves
in
terms
of
their
personal
personal
habits
and
is
right
that
it
we
do
flag
it
very
strongly
as
a
as
a
risk,
because,
whereas
a
few
years
ago
we
might
have
worried
about
actually
a
building
being
incapacitated,
we've
learned
to
work
outside
buildings.
We
would
find
it
very
very
hard
if
we
suffered
a
very
major
cyber
attack.
F
K
Good
afternoon
tim
rollick
from
the
the
council's
intelligence
and
policy
service,
I'm
quite
happy
to
brief
members
on
individual
risks
and
a
couple
of
weeks
ago
we
did
actually
send
an
email
around
asking
if
anybody
would
like
that
that
option
so
I'll
get
in
touch
with
councillor
carter
personally
and
arrange
a
catch-up
with
him.
A
Thank
you
tim
I'm
going
to
turn
to
the
recommendations
on
page
141
and
check
that
we're
all
happy
with
those
that's
great
and
then
move
on
to
item
13,
which
follows
on
in
terms
of
looking
about
how
we
update
our
policies
and
strategies
moving
forward.
I
think
we've
covered
a
lot
of
the
issues
in
in
in
the
last
item,
but
just
again
recognizing.
A
I
think
the
importance
that
these
issues
have
brought
to
executive
board
in
terms
of
highlighting
them
at
the
at
this
level
and
again
the
recommendations
we'll
turn
to
in
a
when
we
finish.
The
discussion
reflects
the
need
to
continue
to
make
sure
briefings
and
training
are
available
to
everybody
involved
in
this,
and
certainly
I'm
keen,
as
we
move
through
the
year
working
with
council
cooper,
that
we
take
a
lot
of
this
work
out
to
all
elected
members
from
all
groups.
A
We
all
play
a
part
in
assessing
and
managing
the
council's
risk
and
keem
that
that
happens
over
the
year
ahead.
I
don't
have
anything
more
to
say
an
introduction
to
this
paper.
Are
there
any
questions
or
comments?
L
Thank
you
leader,
and
the
first
of
my
papers
is
the
financial
monitoring
position
at
month,
2
of
the
council's
finances.
L
Just
a
couple
of
things
to
note
in
introduction,
the
report
outlines
the
various
pressures
that
have
been
identified
within
the
different
directorates,
and
it
also
notes
that
the
collection
fund
for
council
tax
and
business
rates
is
lower
than
pre-recovered
pre-pandemic
rates
as
well.
So
it's
still
an
uncertain
time
about
the
impact
of
corvid,
going
forward
on
our
ability
to
collect
our
our
rates
and
council
tax.
L
F
I
was
actually
going
to
bring
up
the
very
point
that
council
cooper
just
brought
up.
I
haven't,
but
some
members
of
the
conservative
group
have
had
complaints
from
their
schools
as
to
how
late,
in
the
day
they
got.
The
information
now
bear
in
mind
that
this
is
all
100
government
money
which
has
been
available
for
some
time.
Is
there
any
reason
why
there
was
a
delay
in
getting
the
information
out
to
schools?
L
The
winter
support
grant
as
a
count
as
a
council
as
an
organisation
to
spend
in
terms
of
poverty
and
deprivation,
as
we
actually
saw
fit.
It
wasn't
ring
fence
for
free
school
meals
at
all,
and
and
we
had
to
make
the
commitment
actually
that
we
would
support
free
school
meals
going
forward.
L
We
did
so
at
easter
this
year,
councillor,
anderson
and-
and
we
made
the
commitment
shortly
after
that
time-
that
we
would
continue
if
we
were
allowed
to
extend
the
winter
support
grant
to
the
summer
to
be
able
to
cover
the
summer
holidays.
In
fact,
I
believe
it
was
the
government
that
was
late
telling
us
we
could
extend
it
over
the
summer
holiday
period.
So
I
don't
know
whether
council
of
prior
has
got
any
further
information
on
that.
K
No,
I
think
councillor
cooper's
has
covered
this.
You
know
this
is
as
with
all
money
the
council
has.
This
is
taxpayer's
money
that
the
council
has
a
discretionary
choice
on
how
to
spend,
and
this
is
how
we
chose
to
spend
it
from
conversations
with
head
teachers.
It
was
really
clear
that
this
was
a
huge
priority
and
actually
some
of
the
reason
why
some
of
these
notifications
can't
be
earlier
is
because
I
don't
think
the
government
has
fully
planned
ahead
on
on
feeding
children
who
need
free
school
meals
over
the
holidays.
F
So
what
you're
saying
is
that
the
government
didn't
give
you
freedom
to
use
that
money
as
you
saw
fit,
the
government
gave
you
a
large
a
grant
and
they
put
you're
saying
they
put
conditions
on
that
you
weren't
free
to
choose
to
spend
it
on
this.
You
had
to
wait.
You're
saying
you
had
to
wait
until
you
got
the
government
to
give
you
the
okay
to
spend
this
covet
covered
fund
reserve
that
it
wasn't
available
all
the
time
for
you
to
use.
K
No,
I
mean
we
had
to
wait
to
find
out
what
the
government
were
doing,
whether
because
pretty
much
every
holiday
we've
had
over
the
past
year,
the
government
said
we're
not
going
to
provide
free
school
meals,
we're
not,
then
people
will
have
seen
in
the
press.
They
tend
to
get
embarrassed
into
doing
a
u-turn
on
it.
This
holiday
they've
not
been
embarrassed
to
to
a
u-turn
to
specifically
fund
free
school
meals
for
holidays.
So
that's
why
we
have
accounts,
as
a
council
have
stepped
in,
to
provide
that
instead,
what
I'm
getting
at.
F
Be
able
to
bring
it
forward
if
the
government
were
right
or
wrong
or
indifferent.
You
had
the
free
you
had.
The
flexibility
within
the
code
deserve
to
actually
make
the
decision
yourself
without,
even
if
the
government
had
said
no,
even
if
the
government
had
said
no,
you
still
have
or
had
the
capacity
in
the
cover
deserve
to
actually
use
it
for
that
purpose,
so
you
could
have
told
and
made
it
more
public
quicker
because
you
are
committed
to
it
and
you
have
been
for
some
times.
F
I'm
not
I'm
not
saying
that
you've
not
been
committed
to
it,
but
I'm
talking
about
how
the
speed
of
it
is
that
it
was.
You
know
the
government
said
this
code
deserve
for
you
to
use
as
you
see
fit,
so
you
did
have
the
capacity
to
bring
forward
the
decision
quicker
than
you
did
now.
There
may
be
reasons
I'm
not
aware
of
as
to
why
you
didn't
I'm.
So
I'm
just
asking
the
question
as
to
the
the
schools
have
asked
why
couldn't
have
been
brought
to
their
attention
quicker.
That's
where
I'm
coming.
L
I
mean
the
the
the
the
start
of
the
pandemic
and
when
we
received
the
winter
support
grant
from
the
government,
we
decided
to
use
it
in
four
free
school
meals
at
the
time
and
the
planning
for
that
was
literally
quite
short-term
during
the
holiday
period
at
that
time,
and
when
also
when
children
were
off
at
school
when
they
couldn't
go
to
school,
also
because
they
weren't
allowed
to
attend
school
at
the
time,
but
the
it
really
councillor
anderson
it's
about
good
governance
and
good
financial
management,
because
we
didn't
know
how
long
we
would
need
the
funding
for
the
winter
support
grant
that
we
got.
L
In
fact
they
called
it.
The
winter
support
grant
we're.
Now.
I
don't
know
whether
you've
noticed
but
we're
in
july,
and
we're
still
using
that
winter
support
grant
to
feed
children
in
the
summer
holidays.
L
So
it
was
about
how
we
could
use
that
in
terms
of
good
governance
and
in
terms
of
good
financial
prudence,
of
how
we
spent
public
money
in
that
time.
So
we
did
need
to
consider
all
the
other
things
that
we
needed
to
fund
during
that
time
and
each
each
time
we
said
yes,
we're
going
to
fund
school
meals,
say,
for
instance,
at
the
easter
holidays.
The
government
came
in
even
later
than
we
did
to
say
it
doesn't
matter.
You
don't
need
to
we'll
fund
it
this
time.
L
So
actually
we
could
then
carry
that
money
forward
to
the
next
holidays,
which
is
what
we
did
in
may
and
then
we
said
it
in
may
and
again
the
government
decided
it's
okay,
we're
gonna,
we're
gonna
fund.
So
then
that
they've
not
done
that
in
in
in
summer,
so
we've
carried
it
forward
to
summer
so
that
we
can
feed
children
who
are
really
in
need
of
being
fed
over
the
summer
with
the
winter
support
grant,
which
is
a
bit
ironic
and
fine.
F
M
Sorry
I'll
just
bring
it
up.
I
won't
be
a
moment.
We
have
got
the
balance
we
did
get.
We
did
put
24
million
of
covered
reserve,
but
we
have
had
pressures
that
are
reported
in
the
financial
monitoring
report
around
15.4
million,
so
that
would
have
left
us
nine
million.
We
have
committed
against
the
free
school
meals
of
half
a
million,
and
then
we
have
identified
further
pressures
within
directorates
which
will
be
coming
to
the
september
executive
board.
M
So
once
those
pressures
are
taken
into
consideration,
there's
very
little
left
for
from
the
cobra
service
about
one
about
around
about
1
million.
Thank
you.
That's
not.
A
My
point,
thank
you.
Maybe
you
could
that's
not
my
point.
Maybe
we
could
have
a
written
update
on
what
the
covert
reserve
is.
So
we
have
the
accurate
figures.
The
point.
F
Yeah
the
point
I
was
trying
to
because
if
there
was
9
million
left
over
committing
an
extra
half,
a
million
of
it
wasn't
a
great
risk
because
you
could
have
you
because
you've
not
made
the
other
decisions
to
spend
the
other
98.5.
That
would
have
been
remaining
so
you
would
have
had
to,
and
I
think
everybody
here
would
agree
that
funding
the
free
school
meals
is
a
top
priority
and
you
are
correct
and
right
to
do
to
do
so
without
getting
involved
in
the
national
politics
of
it.
A
Thank
you,
council
anderson
and
thank
you
for
recognizing
our
commitment
to
the
free
school
mail
agenda
and
clearly,
as
council
cooper
said
in
their
introduction,
that,
in
terms
of
the
council's
financial
position,
there's
still
a
lot
of
risks
around
the
cover
pandem
coming
in
terms
of
income
and
in
terms
of
still
facing
challenges
in
service
delivery.
Councillor
bentley.
Would
you
like
to
come
in
please.
I
A
couple
of
points
one
is
but
then
I've,
ladies
and
greetings
with
victoria
as
well.
The
financial
dashboard
that's
now
being
circulated
with
the
papers.
Is
it's
not
really
fit
for
purpose?
It
doesn't
give
us
the
detail
we
want.
I
understand
this
is
a
transition
and,
and
it
will,
it
will
get
corrected
in
in
time,
but
it
makes
it
difficult
to
really
then
analyze
spend
and
raise
questions,
but
coming
to
the
again
back
to
the
kobit
reserve.
I
Victoria's
just
said
that
they'll
be
coming
forward
in
september
with
some
further
proposals
to
to
use
that
coverage
reserve
and
my
understanding
is
some
of
it
will
be
used
to
deal
with
one-off
backlogs
that
have
occurred
as
part
of
coming
about
because
of
the
pandemic.
So
registrars
planning
people
like
that
who,
who
weren't
who
workers
was
built
up
and
there
are
several
others
as
well.
I
I
understand
that
will
come
in
a
paper
in
september,
but
what
I
would
ask
is
if
the
thinking
on
that
could
be
shared
with
elected
members,
some
consultation
with
elected
members,
bearing
in
mind
the
comments
we
get
him
from
our
residents
on
what
services
have
been
affected
during
during
covid,
and
so
that
we
can
make
some
representation
as
to
how
some
of
those
one-off
backlogs
are
not
talking
about
continuous
spending
or
talking
about
catching
up,
so
that
we
can
get
back
to
where
we
were
how
some
of
those
can
be
can
be
spent.
A
As
I
said
in
response
to
council
anderson,
you
know
the
the
impact
on
some
council
service
is
going
to
continue
through,
certainly
through
this
calendar,
if
not
municipal
year
and
into
the
future,
and
I
think
we
we
need
to
be
very
clear
about
how
we
make
decisions
around
spending
public
money
and
that's
why
we'll
we'll
bring
it
forward
as
a
as
a
paper
with
specific
recommendations
in
new
york
and
I'm
sure
I
don't
find
councillors
shy
at
coming
forward
with
suggestions
about
where
we
need
to
spend
money,
certainly
will
be
I'm
looking
at
those
comments
and
reflecting
on
them.
A
Are
there
any
more
comments
on
this
paper
item
14?
I
don't
see
any
more
comments,
I'm
going
to
turn
to
the
recommendations
on
page
193
and
over
the
page
on
294,
and
I
see
pretty
happy
with
those
so
we'll
move
on
to
item
15.
Please,
council,
cooper.
L
Thank
you,
leader
and
item
15
is
a
an
update
on
quarter
one
of
the
capital
programme
for
this
year
and
it's
a
it's
a
detailed
paper
that
seeks
executive
boards
support
to
of
a
net
injection
of
51.2
million
that
relates
to
a
number
of
executive
board
papers
with
without
the
same
previously
or
today
around
the
the
capital
spend
that's
needed
around
that
the
details
all
in
the
report,
I'll
leave
it
there
for
questions.
Sure.
F
Know
whether
it's
partly
in
the
previous
paper
and
partly
in
this,
but
you
they're
in
the
report
that
highlights
a
number
of
grants
that
the
government
have
submitted
to
us,
am
I
right
in
saying
that
we've
received
around
about
618
million
so
far
from
the
government
to
try
and
help
help
the
council
balance
the
books
meet
the
needs.
Whatever
phrase
you
want
to
use
is
around
about
618
million.
It
highlights,
for
example,
15.6
million
for
dft
grant
for
connecting
leads
20.6
for
grant
allocations,
etc.
A
F
I
practice
what
I
said,
but
I
mean
you
know:
we've
got
a
lot
of
grant
monies
which
is
helping
us
out.
That's
the
point
I'm
trying
to
make
is.
Am
I
correct
in
saying
that
the
government
have
been
putting
their
hand
in
their
pocket
and
have
been
giving
you
grant
funding
in
order
to
help
you
meet
the
problems
that
you're
facing
up
to.
M
Thank
you,
council
lewis.
The
grant
that
we
have
received
into
the
city
is
around
about
618
million,
but
a
number
of
those
grants
are
passported
right
through
to
local
business
businesses,
residents,
etc
and
help
us
fund
the
losses
of
income
for
the
council.
So
it
is
a
mixture
of
all
things,
but
it's
the
amount
that's
coming
to
the
into
the
region,
rather
than
specifically
to
the
council.
A
Thank
you.
I
think,
that's
why
national
boring's,
where
it
is
at
the
moment
as
as
well
so
are
there
any
more
comments
on
item
15,
please
tom,
please
just.
B
On
the
last
one,
it
might
be
worth
victoria
circulating
to
members
just
the
the
breakdown,
because
I
think
it
is
sort
of
apples
and
pears
in
terms
of
the
amount
of
money
that's
coming
through.
Obviously
part
of
it
is
us
effectively,
acting
as
the
business
support
agency
for
the
government
to
support
businesses
through
the
pandemic
and
that's
a
large
slice
of
what's
been
described,
there's
other
elements
which
are
directly
related
to
us
as
a
council.
So
perhaps
we
could
circulate
that
to
just
clarify
it.
L
You
can
come
back
on
that,
and
that
is
a
a
large
amount
of
it
that
is
passported
straight
out
of
this
council,
and
the
other
point
to
note
about
that
is.
Whilst
government
grants
are
extremely
welcome,
particularly
in
these
very
challenging
times
yeah.
L
We
have
to
remember
these
are
one-offs
and
they
don't
give
us
the
ability
to
plan
sustainably
moving
forward,
especially
if
you
keep
in
mind
the
comments
that
I
made
earlier
around
the
very
uncertain
times
that
we're
all
facing
at
the
moment,
with
the
new
wave
of
the
pandemic
and
the
infection
rates
being
so
high.
Our
ability
to
to
recover
from
the
various
lockdowns
and
businesses
to
recover
from
the
various
restrictions
that
that
they
have
had
to
undergo
is
a
very
uncertain
and
unknown
impress
unpredictable
time.
L
So
we
need
to
you
know,
ensure
that
we
we're
able
to
fund
the
organization
going
forward,
whatever
we
may
face
and
I'm
afraid
to
say
that
one
of
funding
doesn't
really
cut
it.
I'm
afraid
we
need
much
more
sustainable
grant
car
funding
from
the
government,
which
we
don't
get.
A
Thank
you,
council
cooper.
I
can't
see
any
more
comments
on
item
15,
so
thank
you.
Council,
cooper
and
officers
for
the
for
the
resources
portfolio
papers
and
we
now
move
on
to
council
of
enemies.
N
Thank
you
chair.
I've
just
got
one
report
today,
which
is
the
annual
fostering
report.
N
It's
a
requirement
that
we
bring
this
this
report
annually,
it's
a
very
positive
story
in
terms
of
fostering
over
the
last
very
challenging
year
in
leeds
in
terms
of
the
in
terms
of
the
rates
I've
looked
after
children,
although
the
raw
numbers
gone
up
because
the
child
population's
gone
up,
our
rate
per
10
000
is
the
really
key
figure
and
that's
75.
At
the
moment,
it's
been
between
75
and
79
for
the
last
few
years
compared
to
95
when
we
were
inadequate
10
years
ago.
Our
foster
carers
have
been
magnificent
during
the
pandemic.
N
We
really
thought
we'd
be
scrabbling
around
for
placements
and
actually,
we've
had
a
very
high
rate
of
placement
stability
and
also
foster
families,
reporting,
sometimes
improved
relationships
as
a
result
of
lockdowns
and
spending
so
much
time
together
and
foster.
Families
have
worked
really
hard
and
creatively
to
maintain
contact
visits.
That's
so
important
to
children
and
birth
families.
N
Leeds
has
had
some
great
publicity
around
our
fostering
service.
Over
the
last
year
there
was
the
old
parliamentary
group
on
kinship
care
produced
its
report.
Last
year
and
referenced
leads
a
number
of
times
as
a
model
of
good
practice.
N
Their
main
recommendation
is
that
authorities
should
look
to
kinship
care
first
and
in
leeds
34
of
our
foster
families
of
kinship
families
which
compare
20
nationally.
So
it
really
is
our
aspiration,
wherever
we
can
that
we
place
children
first
within
their
extended
family.
The
report
also
refers
to
family
group
conferencing
and
mockingbird
hubs,
as
things
authorities
should
be
doing,
which
leeds
already
does
in
terms
of
where
foster
carers
have
left
us,
which
they
do
every
year,
not
not
usually
for
negative
reasons.
N
There
was
an
issue
that
I
used
to
hear
a
lot
from
from
foster
families
that
they
were
worried
about
being
disadvantaged
if
they
became
sga
carers
in
terms
of
getting
less
money,
getting
less
access
to
support.
Some
of
that's
not
in
our
control,
in
that
it's
things
like
the
amount
of
benefits
you're
entitled
to.
But
what
is
in
our
control?
We've
changed,
so
we've
got
a
much
better
offer
for
sgo
carers.
N
They've
got
access
to
staying
put
arrangements
and
things
like
access
to
leisure
cards
and
the
therapeutic
social
web
team
that
mainstream
foster
carers
have
so
we're
very
much
encouraging
people
to
consider
moving
from
being
foster
carers
to
being
sgo
carriers
with
the
new
offer.
Although
this
is
a
really
positive
report,
there's
always
things
that
we
could
do
better
and
we
we
always
need
particularly
more
vain
foster
carers,
particularly
more
black,
foster
carers,
and
that's
that's
been
a
priority
for
the
last
couple
of
years.
N
We've
got
some
specific
partnerships
to
address
that,
I'm
also
in
the
process
of
setting
up
a
meeting
that
I
think
some
counsellors
in
this
room
are
coming
to
with
counsellors
who
want
to
know
more
about
how
they
can
better
promote,
foster
caring
in
their
own
wards.
We're
always
really
keen
to
get
more
foster
carers,
we're
in
the
process
ourselves
of
becoming
a
foster
friendly
employer
in
terms
of
our
employees,
and
once
we've
achieved
that
status,
we
can
promote
that
externally
to
our
child
friendly
needs
ambassadors.
N
My
final
comment,
chair
is:
we've
just
provided
some
information
for
tom
to
respond
to
a
national
inquiry
from
the
government
about
unaccompanied
design
and
seeking
children,
because
you'll
be
aware
that
council
is
in
absolute
crisis
again,
I'm
really
pleased
to
report
that
we've
taken
19,
unaccompanied
assignment-seeking
children
into
leeds
since
may,
which
is
more
than
have
come
through
the
national
transfer
system.
N
It
includes
eight
children
that
were
wrongly
classified
as
adults,
which
is
a
really
traumatic
pathway
to
to
coming
to
us.
So
I'm
really
proud
that
again,
as
last
year,
we've
responded
to
the
humanitarian
crisis
I'll
leave
it
there
chairman,
I'm
happy
to
take
any
questions
and
joel
and
tim
are
here
as
well
from
the
directorate
as
well.
If
there
are
any
questions
that
I
can't
respond
to,
thank
you.
A
Thank
you,
council
of
any.
Are
there
any
questions
or
comments?
No,
I'm
going
to
turn
to
the
recommendations

and
I
see
everybody
is
happy
with
those
and
thanks
to
the
officers
who've
attended
for
that
item,
and
we
move
on
to
our
last
item.
Please,
under
council
harlan's
portfolio.
O
Thank
you
leader.
This
paper
attaches
the
progress
report
on
our
equality
improvement.
Priorities
for
2018-22
proposes
our
new
equality
improvements,
priorities
for
21.25
and
includes
a
slightly
refreshed
equality
and
diversity
policy.
O
O
O
The
report
also
highlights
and
shows
the
great
work
being
carried
out
across
all
directorates
and
executive
member
portfolios,
and
I'd
like
to
thank
all
the
officers
involved
in
tackling
inequalities
and
poverty
and
leads
for
their
very
impressive
efforts,
and
also
to
thank
leela
young
for
pulling
this
report
together
and
as
he's
here,
I
know
that
councillor
anderson
strategy
board
at
sorry
scrutiny
board
have
a
close
watch
on
our
equality
strategies
and
I'd
like
to
thank
him
on
his
sports
input
over
the
years
and
I'll
leave
it.
There
later.
F
I
have
had
the
honor
of
being
on
the
members
equality
group
that
regularly
challenge
different
departments,
and
sometimes
the
departments
are
taking
a
little
bit
back
at
the
veracity
of
some
of
the
questioning
we
take,
but
I'm
not
going
to
be
on
it,
I'm
being
replaced.
So
I
wanted
to
just
to
thank
ev.
F
You
know
all
the
officers
for
working
constructively
with
us
and
in
terms
of
being
able
to
come
forward
with
this
report
and
whilst
we
were
not
responsible
solely
for
stonewall,
giving
us
a
good
comment
and
when
we
were
that
I've
got
a
peer
review,
I
do
think
that
we
have
shown
working
across
the
council.
We've
done
a
lot
to
move
this
agenda
forward
and
I'm
pleased
for
the
part
that
I
small
beer
is
have
actually
played
in
what's
happened.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you,
council
anderson.
Thank
you
for
all
your
thank
you
for
all
your
work
as
a
as
a
quality
champion.
I
think
it's
been
something
that
has
run
under
administrations
of
many
different
parties
here
and,
like
you
say,
certainly
brought
some
a
lot
of
value
to
the
organization
and
to
do
this.
Work
on
a
cross-party
basis
has
been
part
of
the
successes
we've
had
if
there's
no
more
I'll
council
bentley.
Please
thanks.
I
I
Poverty
is
a
great
sort
of
factor
of
inequality.
I
We
all
know
that
it's
a
tourism,
but
in
in
a
ward
like
mine,
which
is
seen
as
being
an
affluent
ward,
there
are
great
pockets
of
poverty,
but
they
get
hidden
by
the
fact
that
oh
well,
you
know
in
terms
of
a
priority
neighborhood
and
all
the
other
measures
it
doesn't
fall.
How
are
we
addressing
it?
Maybe
in
the
paper
night
I
apologize
if
it
has
been.
I
How
are
we
addressing
that
to
identify
not
just
the
priority
neighborhoods
but
the
priority
people
within
the
city
so
that
they
get
an
equal
chance
as
well.
O
Thank
you
councillor,
bentley,
yes
and
councillor.
Lewis's
warden
and
my
water
also
thought
it
was
the
land
of
milk
and
honey
to
quote
councillor
mick
lyons
on
many
occasions,
but
there
is
work
going
on
to
extend
I'll.
Let
james
come
in.
If
that's
okay,.
G
Yeah
thanks
councillor,
holland.
I
think
it's
fair
to
say
that
clearly
we
do
do
concentrated
work
in
certain
parts,
such
as
the
neighborhood
improvement
areas,
but
it's
also
fair
to
say
that
a
lot
of
our
services
operate
city-wide.
So
we've
got
a
financial
inclusion
team,
for
example,
which
offers
advice
and
support
to
anybody
across
the
city
who
might
be
in
difficult
circumstances,
and
they
don't
necessarily
just
focus
on
particular
awards
optical
areas.
It's
actually
people
based
about
people
in
particular
issues
and
you'll,
find
a
number
of
services
across
the
whole.
A
That
thank
you
james.
I
don't
see
any
more
comments
on
this
paper,
so
I'm
going
to
turn
to
the
recommendations
on
page
250
I'll
see
everybody's
happy
with
those.
So
thank
you.
That
brings
us
to
the
end
of
the
public
part
of
the
meeting.
So
we
have
a
couple
of
items
that
are
exempt
from
public,
so
I
will
bring
the
public
part
of
the
meeting
to
an
end
and
thank
everybody
for
attending
and
we'll
move
into
the.
