Forward Plan
We publish a monthly Forward Plan setting out the executive 'key decisions' which are proposed to be made on behalf of the local authority over the months ahead.
The law requires notice to be given of these items looking 28 days ahead, but we seek to identify items over a longer period, up to 12 months ahead (the plan also lists some other proposed decisions not in the executive key decision category).

Property Acquisitions Programme 2024/26
Notice made pursuant to s.10 The Local Authorities (Executive Arrangements) (Meetings and Access to Information) (England) Regulations 2012. The following decision will not have had the requisite 28 days on the Forward Plan ahead of an SO83(A) decision being taken on behalf of the Executive:
Subject
Property Acquisitions Programme 2024/26.
Action
To approve the Council (Executive Director of Housing and Regeneration) signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) to secure a grant allocation from the Local Housing Authority Fund Round 3 (LAHF R3), to acquire 56 properties in the borough for temporary accommodation.
It was considered impracticable to defer this decision to enable 28 days’ notice of the decision to be taken on the Forward Plan as MHCLG were unable to issue the MOU until after the General Election which meant that July’s Housing Overview and Scrutiny Committee was missed and the next available Committee in October will be too late, as there are already several property acquisitions which cannot be legally exchanged until the MOU is signed.
Key decisions
Key decisions are, broadly, those executive decisions likely to result in significant spending or savings, or likely to have a significant effect on people living or working in two or more wards in the borough.
About the plan
Where the plan gives the date of an Executive meeting, that body is due to make the decision. It will be supplied with reports via the relevant Overview and Scrutiny Committees and other committees; these reports will be published as they become available. Other documents may be submitted and again these will be posted here.
