Report of the Interim Executive Director for Environment.

The Committee received a report of the Interim Executive Director for Environment, concerning the approval of the draft High-Level Business Plan 2024/25 for the Environment Department.

It was confirmed that the noise strategy was held within the Public Protection Team.

Feedback was requested on the strategic commitment to Destination City, and the implications for the Committee based on the shifts on working and living in the City of London. The Committee heard that there was a review into Destination City on its future emphasis. Street cleansing was an example of how the Committee would be affected, but this did not fall into one strategy but rather across multiple departments at the City Corporation.

RESOLVED – That Members:

(i)            Note the factors taken into consideration in compiling the Environment Department Business Plan; and

(ii)           Approve, subject to the incorporation of any changes sought by this Committee, the elements of the draft high-level Business Plan 2024/25 (Appendix A) which fall into the remit of the Port Health and Environmental Services Committee.
