Minutes:
The
Committee scrutinised the following private matters
Cabinet
Board Proposals
i.
Grwp Gwalia Contract Payments
Members
considered a report that sought approval to pay costs incurred to Grwp Gwalia.
Members
questioned why the costs had been incurred and why hadn’t any investigative works
been undertake before the contract was signed. Officers stated that works had
been undertaken but when more in depth works had been undertaken it highlighted
additional problems and therefore the Council was not really in a position to
not pay the costs.
Following
scrutiny the Committee was supportive of the proposal to be considered by the
Cabinet Board.
ii.
2016/17 Supporting People Programme Grant Contracts
Members
considered the report that sought approval to enter into interim contractual
arrangements with the current providers of the Supporting People Programme
Grant.
Members
asked whether this was something out of the ordinary. Officers confirmed that
this was standard practice and would allow the service to undertake a
re-procurement exercise during 2016/2017. Members requested that progress
reports be brought to committee should there be any problems with negotiations.
Following
scrutiny the Committee was supportive of the proposals to be considered by the
Cabinet Board.
