Decision details

Integrated Home Improvement Services - Consultation Outcome

Decision Maker: Cabinet

Decision status: Recommendations approved

Is Key decision?: Yes

Purpose:

At its meeting on 14 February 2019, Full Council approved a proposal to cease the Integrated Home Improvement Service, subject to a full public consultation, with the final determination to be made by Cabinet taking into account the responses.

 

This report outlines the results from public consultation, in the context of wider policy developments and equality analysis, and provides appropriate information for Cabinet to consider the proposal to cease Integrated Home Improvement Service, resulting in an annual budget saving of £880,000. The Integrated Home Improvement Service also provides for delivery of Lancashire County Council's statutory obligation to provide 'minor adaptations', and therefore this element of the service will require procurement should the proposal go ahead.

 

This is deemed to be a Key Decision and the provisions of Standing Order C19 have been complied with.

 

Decision:

The Cabinet approved the recommendation(s) as set out in the report and recorded its thanks to all the officers who assisted in producing the report, in particular the Equality Analysis report.

 

Reason Key: Significant effect in 2 or more electoral divisions;

Divisions Affected: (All Divisions);
