A report of the Governance and Scrutiny Support Unit was submitted. The overview report contained a list of key decisions yet to be taken within the Committee’s remit, responses to previous recommendations and the Committee’s work programme, which the Committee was asked to approve.

 

A Member requested that the Committee continue to look at homelessness during the new municipal year.  The Chair advised that there would be work programming session after the meeting and that Members could discuss then how this would be planned into the Committee’s work programme.
