Questions on Matters Relating to the Work of the Committee

Minutes:

A Member raised a query regarding the presentation of banners by tenants in some flats on the Golden Lane Estate. Officers suggested that although tenancy agreements did not prohibit this behaviour Officers were considering all options available to help tackle the issue. Members agreed that it would be premature to escalate the matter legally and the most sensible way forward may be to have low level discussions with residents.

 

A Member raised a query regarding the support provided to tenants accepting Universal Credit. Officers informed the Committee that the City exercised an active programme and a strong approach was taken to engage with tenants with Universal Credit.
