Minutes:

Members considered the report prepared by the Senior Solicitor following their request for further information by the Board at the meeting held on 23rd March 2010.  It was confirmed that the Council does not have any statutory responsibilities to residents of almshouses. It was considered that the scrutiny request completed by a member of the public was of a personal nature and therefore it would not be appropriate for the Board to investigate it further.

 

RESOLVED:

(a)       that the report be noted;

(b)       that the Legal Team liaise with the Strategic Housing Team and write appropriately to the member of the public concerned; and

(c)        that the Board take no further action.
