Yes

To consider the outcome of the public consultation on the proposed adoption of National Amenity and Space Standards for Houses in Multiple Occupation and to formally adopt these standards.

The Director of Public Health has a duty to write an annual report, whereas the local authority’s duty is to publish it. The focus of this year’s report is on the importance of ‘getting people moving more’ and how Public Health and partners are working to provide opportunities for and access to healthy movement. The Executive committee will be asked to consider and note the report.

The report includes reflections on engagement already undertaken with a wide range of stakeholder groups. The report will be shared with HAS leadership teams, Executive Portfolio Holder and Management Board for comment as it progresses, and to the Health and Wellbeing Board, Scrutiny of Health Committee and Care and Independence Overview & Scrutiny Committee for information following Executive.
