Minutes:

The Director of Children’s Services presented a report that recommended a pilot initiative in 2010-11 to support young homeless people, helping them to return to parents or family or to live independently, be continued.  The cost of the service was £87,000 per annum.  In addition, £30,000 was required for additional training and support for the Integrated Children’s System (ICS).  Both proposals contributed to key indicators and could be funded from re-profiled Care Matters Area-Based Grant in 2009-10.

 

RESOLVED:

 

That the pilot Stop Gap initiative be extended for a further year, at a cost of £87,000 and additional ICS training be undertaken at a cost of £30,000 - both to be funded from re-profiled Care Matters Area-Based Grant in 2009-10.
