Issue - meetings

The Cabinet considered a report on the Update of the Sustainable Community Strategy 2008-2011, which set out the overall strategic direction and long-tem vision for the economic, social and environmental well-being of a local area.  During the discussion the Portfolio Holder for Street Scene and Community referred to the need to ensure that the Strategy covered the needs of ‘looked after’ children.

RESOLVED that the Assistant Chief Executive requests the relevant Theme Group Chair to include the needs of ‘looked after’ children in the Children and Young People High Level Action Plan as set out in the report.

RECOMMENDED that the updated Sustainable Community Strategy 2008-2011 be approved and that it be noted that the document had been updated to reflect the new Local Area Agreement 2008-2011.
