Decision details

Members received the proposed housing revenue account (HRA) budget which included the housing repairs account. It was noted that balances had been increased and there was a reserve to meet costs arising from the stock condition survey.

On a separate matter, a member expressed concern that, whilst the authority’s housing was very well managed, housing associations were not subject to the same scrutiny. It was suggested that the chairman of the Scrutiny Commission give consideration to undertaking a review into housing associations.

RESOLVED – the report be noted.
