Decision Maker: Executive Director: Growth and Regeneration
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Purpose:
This will ensure that we are able to fund the
services that are preventing and reliving rough sleeping in the
city in line with the governments Rough Sleeping Strategy and the
aims of the Corporate Strategy 2022-27.
Decision:
A report was approved by Cabinet on the 5th
April 2022 for the plans for the provision of services relating to
the Rough Sleeping Initiative (RSI) and Commissioning services from
2022 to 2025.
Recommendation 1 on the report requested that Cabinet,
‘Authorise the Executive Director of Growth and Regeneration
in consultation with Cabinet Member Housing Delivery and Homes to
enter into a grant agreement to accept and spend the funding of
£10,160,931 from DLUCH to reduce rough sleeping in the city
for 2022/25”. We now have confirmation of the award from July
2022 to March 2025. This funding, alongside the funding already
granted for Q1 will allow us to extend current contracts and grant
agreements until tender processes have been undertaken and new
contracts are in place for funded services in the programme until
March 2025.
Alternative options considered:
Option 1 - This option prioritises service
continuity to prevent a return to rough sleeping for a vulnerable
client group who experience multiple disadvantage and any other
option would be contrary to the aims of the Corporate Strategy
2022-27.
Option 2 -
Option 3 -
