Flexible homelessness support grant

24/07/2017 - Flexible homelessness support grant

Cabinet considered the report of the interim head of development, regeneration and housing on the use of the new flexible homelessness support grant.  This grant replaced the temporary accommodation management fee and was ring-fenced for two years to help councils prevent or deal with homelessness.  The report set out a proposal to spend the grant in accordance with the government’s conditions. 

 

Cabinet agreed to the proposed spend, believing this would bring significant benefits to tackling homelessness in the district.  The alternative option of returning the ring-fenced grant was rejected.  Cabinet asked officers to arrange suitable publicity. 

 

RESOLVED: to approve the proposed expenditure of the flexible homelessness support grant as set out in paragraph 12 of the interim head of development, regeneration and housing’s report.
