Minutes:
A Notice of Motion, submitted by Councillor G Baxendale to the Council on 19 July 2012, had been referred to the Cabinet for consideration. On 30 June 2012 the Mayor had signed the Cheshire Community Covenant and the Cabinet was asked to take responsibility for the development of a detailed action plan to outline by service area the practical support that the Council could provide to those currently serving in the Armed Forces, their families, and those that had served in the past.
Since the Motion had been submitted the Sustainable Communities Committee had considered the issue and it was reported that the provisions for housing allocations and school admissions were to be looked at further.
RESOLVED
That Cabinet accepts responsibility for the development of a detailed action plan, and that the outcome of further work by the Scrutiny Committees on the provisions for housing allocations and school admissions be awaited.
