Minutes:

The Committee had before it, and NOTED, the Leaders Annual Report for 2021-2022.

 

The Leader informed the Committee that he had not received any advance questions and that an updated report would be presented to the next Audit Committee.

 

Consideration was given to:

 

·         There was currently no data available to confirm how many failures of the Homes for Ukraine’s scheme had occurred in Mid Devon

·         The Government had allowed Ukrainian refugees to move schemes if a breakdown in families occurred which enabled them to stay in the UK

·         If any Ukrainian refugees became homeless in Mid Devon due to break down of relationships with their hosts that the Council had a statutory requirement to rehome them and officers remained committed to helping refugees

·         Members request that data on affordable housing be updated and included in future reports

·         Members gratitude to the Revenue and Benefits Service for the high collection rates of Business Rates and Council Tax
