The Leader of the Council presented the Annual Report of Cases of Special Urgency and advised that the three key decisions taken this year were writing off rent arrears around Churchgate, items surrounding the UK Shared Prosperity Funding and the bringing in-house of Careline which included installation and maintenance contracts.

 

Following the question from Councillor David Levett surrounding the write-off of rent arrears around Churchgate, Councillor Elizabeth Dennis advised that a written response would be given in due course outside of the meeting.
