Reconfiguration of Supporting People Funded Services

 

 

A reduction of £4 million to the Supporting People Budget was 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. This report seeks approval to reduce funding for a range of services including a reduction of £1.558m for floating support services, a reduction of £0.1m for supported lodgings services and the decommissioning of family intervention projects.  Information is also provided regarding the approach being adopted in relation to commissioning short term accommodation based services
