Notice of proposed decision first published: 16/02/2024

This decision will be taken under urgency procedures.

Reason for urgency:
There is a risk to the Council in regard to not spending the PH Grant reserve, which have accumulated over the course of the last few years, e.g. risk that grant funding could be reduced in the future, risk that funding could be reclaimed if not used.

There are unmet needs which have been identified as part of the comprehensive Public Health Grant Review during 2023, led by the Director of Public Health, and the use of the Public Health Grant Reserve will implement appropriate measures to support meeting those needs.
