To receive an update on next steps in response to the Best Value Inspection report.

The Committee were advised there was no update to provide yet as the Ministry had not confirmed next steps. However, on the basis of the draft directions, a consolidated action plan had been collated that would be presented to the next meeting of the Audit Committee.

Progress had been made on the exchange and completion of the recent Council-approved site disposals, which addressed some aspects of the draft directions. The Chair encouraged that the Chair and Vice-Chair of the Business, Infrastructure and Growth Committee be involved in any further steps in a disposals programme.
