Damp, Mould and Condensation Policy
From: Cabinet - Tuesday 10th September 2024 1.30 pm - September 10, 2024
Introduction and approval of a new damp, mould and condensation policy. Engagement has been carried out formally with the Tenants and Leaseholder Panel (TLP). Feedback has been positive regarding the change in approach and the focus on ensuring residents’ safety is at the core of the process. The improved methods of communication with residents were identified as a significant improvement. The panel have commented that some of the language in the suite of letters to residents should be reviewed to ensure it is collaborative and that they are written in ‘plain English’ These recommendations have been accepted, and the changes will be implemented by the Communications team as part of the communication strategy.

Inclusion and Diversity Strategy 2024-2027
From: Cabinet - Tuesday 10th September 2024 1.30 pm - September 10, 2024
The Council is under a statutory duty under the Public Sector Equality Duty to publish one or more equality objectives every four years. To date we have fulfilled this requirement through our Inclusion & Diversity (I&D) Strategy. The proposed strategy sets out the three elements of our role as a Council with inclusion and diversity: 1. Compliance: how we comply with the Public Sector Equality Duty under the Equality Act 2010 2. Ambition: how we achieve our ambitions for inclusion as an organisational value (as set out in the Council Plan) and create an inclusive culture and support a diverse workforce and district 3. Partnership: how we enable inclusion more broadly in Kirklees The new strategy builds on the learning and progress made in previous strategies and sets out priorities that support a wide set of outcomes for communities in Kirklees and our workforce. The existing Inclusion and Diversity Strategy is available at Inclusion and Diversity Strategy 2021-2023 | Kirklees Council (https://www.kirklees.gov.uk/beta/delivering-services/inclusion-and-diversity-strategy.aspx) An enhanced engagement process has taken place with both internal and external stakeholders, who have been instrumental developing the priorities and objectives in the Strategy. As a broad strategy which touches on many services and programmes across the organisation, internal stakeholders have included all departments which are referenced in the strategy objectives and members of our staff network groups / employee reference groups. External stakeholders have included KiNETIC, North Kirklees Interfaith Forum, The Brunswick Centre, Support2Recovery and Third Sector Leaders. The enhanced engagement and consultation process has allowed for a multiplicity of views and experiences to be incorporated into this strategy. External stakeholders provided feedback on topics such as experiences of disabled people in Kirklees, loneliness and a lack of social connectedness in LGBTQ+ communities, and the impact of poverty on young families.
