04/11/2015 - Youth Volunteering - Volunteer Centre Tower Hamlets (VCTH)
Hasan Faruq, Interim Service Development Manager, introduced the report which requested an extension of an SLA for Volunteer Centre Tower Hamlets until 31 March 2016.
The Chair invited Councillor Saunders and Councillor Golds to comment on the proposals and they indicated that they supported the application.
Mayor, John Biggs requested that the criteria and difference between an SLA and a procurement process be clarified and the Chair agreed that an explanation be made available for clarity.
The Chair and Commissioner Max Caller were concerned that the application was retrospective and did not support this approach. Zena Cooke, Corporate Director for Resources advised that there was dialogue with report authors to ensure that future reports would be timetabled and presented in a timely manner.
