Executive Director of Community and Children’s Services to be heard.

The committee received a verbal report of the Executive Director of Community and Children’s Services.

The committee noted the work undertaken to check City of London Corporation records and that 24 leases were in the process of being checked for canopy clauses. The committee discussed what commitment, if any, the Corporation had given regarding the ongoing maintenance of the canopy roof and noted that the legal advice of the Corporation’s Comptroller and City Solicitor’s Department was being sought to inform interpretation of the information found thus far. It was noted that a range of leases were in place across the residential estate.
