Consideration was given to recommendation HP 24/11 of the
Housing and Planning Scrutiny Select Committee of 19 March 2024 in
respect of a recent consultancy review of temporary accommodation
and homelessness. 
 
Cabinet had due regard to the views of the Scrutiny Select
Committee, the financial and value for money considerations and
legal implications and recognised that given the continued demands
on homelessness services and the need for temporary accommodation,
the Borough Council would be unable to continue to manage the
temporary accommodation numbers without the service working at
maximum efficiency and effectiveness. 
 
RESOLVED: That
 

(1)    the
Temporary Accommodation and Homelessness Service Review (attached
at Annex 1), be noted; and

(2)    the Action
Plan (attached at Annex 2), be approved.
