Issue - meetings

Received a report detailing achievement of the Government’s target for bed and breakfast placements for homeless families.  The report also referred to a letter received from Lord Rooker, Minister for Regeneration and Regional Development, congratulating the Council on meeting the target ahead of schedule.

Agreed, to commit to reduce the usage of bed and breakfast placements for single persons, noting current take up of Private Sector Leased properties as well as the potential for further development of this provision.
