Minutes:
Councillor Dempster submitted a report that proposed changes to the existing Children and Young People’s Services (CYPS) Property Services Team and Building Schools for the Future (BSF) team to deliver the Council’s capital programme for children and young people. Councillor Dempster explained that it was intended to put together one team to deal with capital projects to ensure an integrated strategy to obtain best value. It was noted that at one time the use of consultants had been necessary, but such work was now able to be carried out by Officers.
It was noted that the Children and Young People Scrutiny Committee had considered the report at its meeting on 26 November 2009 and had noted the report and endorsed the recommendations for Cabinet.
