Forward Plan
We publish a monthly Forward Plan setting out the executive 'key decisions' which are proposed to be made on behalf of the local authority over the months ahead.
The law requires notice to be given of these items looking 28 days ahead, but we seek to identify items over a longer period, up to 12 months ahead (the plan also lists some other proposed decisions not in the executive key decision category).
View the Forward Plan for April 2024.
Decision notice
Notice made pursuant to s.10 The Local Authorities (Executive Arrangements) (Meetings and Access to Information) (England) Regulations 2012.
The following decision will not have had the requisite 28 days on the Forward Plan ahead of an SO83(A) decision being taken on behalf of the Executive:
Garratt Park Depot Upgrade
Action:
The direct appointment of Serco to manage the container project at Garratt Park Depot on behalf of the Council.
It was considered impracticable to defer this decision to enable 28 days’ notice of the decision to be taken on the Forward Plan as the depot needs to be reconfigured urgently to create space and enable the Council to receive the new Waste Collection Vehicles.
This is a priority to ensure that the Council continues to provide a reliable service for their new contract extension and new food waste service. The arrival of the new fleet of vehicles has commenced with the majority of the fleet arriving mid-April through to May.
What are key decisions?
Key decisions are, broadly, those executive decisions likely to result in significant spending or savings, or likely to have a significant effect on people living or working in two or more wards in the borough.
About the plan
Where the plan gives the date of an Executive meeting, that body is due to make the decision. It will be supplied with reports via the relevant Overview and Scrutiny Committees and other committees; these reports will be published as they become available. Other documents may be submitted and again these will be posted here.
