Decision Maker: Assistant Director - Housing

Outcome: Recommendations Approved

Is Key Decision?: Yes

Is Callable In?: No

Purpose: Approved delegation in report to Cabinet on 27th February 2024 (agenda item 7): That delegated authority is given to the Service Director – Housing, in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Housing and the Service Director – Finance, within the total funding provision of £700k to identify and progress service transformation projects and spend to save initiatives, and to respond to possible in-year changes in legislation or national housing policy to ensure that the authority continues to meet its statutory obligations and has a social housing offer which is fit for purpose. As the Council’s existing COINS system will not be able to be decommissioned until very late in the 2025-2026 financial year at the earliest, a new contract is required to ensure continuation of service delivery whilst the Council is able to transition safely and securely to a new technology supplier.
