The Vice-Chair invited John Coker, Strategic Housing Manager to present the report which asked the Sub Committee to authorise the Corporate Director for Place to continue grant funding to Ocean Regeneration Trust (ORT) for five years. This would be linked with the lease of the Harford Multicentre to the Trust, subject to delivery of the Ocean and Limehouse Community Review and would enable ORT to increase their occupation of the Mulitcentre.

The Vice-Chair noted the community services and income generation elements of the scheme.  He then invited Sub Committee Members’ and Commissioner Caller to give their comments. Commissioner Caller noted that no lease details were yet available and in these circumstances it was better to defer the grant decision until details of the lease were known.

DECISION

That the application to authorise the Corporate Director for Place to continue grant funding to Ocean Regeneration Trust (ORT) for five years be deferred pending information on the lease being made available.
