Report of the Director of Community & Children’s Services.

The Committee received a report of the Executive Director, Community & Children’s Services concerning outstanding actions.

The following points were noted:

• A Member raised a question about the funding for the City of London Scout Group, specifically whether there would be a cut in their funding of £7,000. An officer responded that they had encouraged the Scout group to use grant funding, as it is a non-statutory provision. Due to the proportion of scouts who live in the city, they might not qualify for grant funding. The officer confirmed that they would pay the £7,000 from their budget but noted that this might need to be revisited if there are wider cuts within the Corporation.

RESOLVED – That, the report be noted.
