The Committee received a report on the reconfiguration of Supporting People funded services. It was noted that a reduction of £4 million to the Supporting People Budget had already been agreed in the County Council's Revenue Budget 2014/15. However, it was clearly identified in the Equality Analysis submitted as part of those proposals that consultation would be undertaken prior to decisions being made regarding savings to individual services. The outcome of those consultations and the final proposals were now being reported.

Resolved:That the recommendations in the report to the cabinet member be noted and that no additional comments or suggested alternative recommendations be made
