Agenda item

There were two items of other business.

The Head of Homelessness Prevention and Rough Sleeping reported that the annual street count had been undertaken using an abbreviated methodology combining a spotlight count with a multi-agency meeting, which had allowed an informed estimate to be agreed and submitted in line with Government requirements.

The Chairman thanked Officers for a recent Briefing Session for Members on local issues arising from drugs and alcohol misuse which had been helpful in identifying the support needs of some homeless and rough sleeping individuals.
