Decision details

Cabinet considered the Sanctuary Scheme Policy which set out the approach that Broxtowe Borough Council would take when a referral for assistance from the Sanctuary Scheme was received. This had been updated following the change of responsibility for the management and delivery of the Sanctuary Scheme from Housing to Communities.

RESOLVED that the revised Sanctuary Policy be approved.

Reason

The Policy provides a framework for how requests will be processed and the steps that the Council should take when processing a request. The Sanctuary Scheme applies to owner occupiers, Council tenants and tenanted properties, rented properties in the private sector and those that belong to registered providers.
