A report by the Director of Neighbourhood Services set out the findings and recommendations arising from a scrutiny review of allotment provision across Wirral. This review had been commissioned as part of the Environment Overview & Scrutiny Committee’s work programme in 2019/20.

Councillor Christina Muspratt, who was a member of the Scrutiny Panel, introduced the report and spoke of the benefits of allotments. Members debated the issue and options available to increase the number and revenue of allotments.

Resolved:

That the recommendations contained within the Allotment Provision Scrutiny Review report of the Environment Overview & Scrutiny Committee be approved and the Committee have updates at future meetings.
