Community Efficiency Savings 2010/2011 - Utilisation of capacity of in-house transport - Equality Impact assessments

Title
Community Efficiency Savings 2010/2011 - Utilisation of capacity of in-house transport
Council Resource
Community and Enterprise
Service Area
Community Resources
Aims and Objectives
To utilise spare seating within the current in-house bus provision and to use this to reduce or remove the current taxi provision for Education and Social Work clients


Conclusion
There is no requirement to undertake a full impact assessment on this proposal. Although the change to the service has the potential to impact on children with additional support needs and social work clients, this will be undertaken on an individual basis by social work and education professionals. Current client groups will continue to receive a free transport service but the method of delivery may, where appropriate, alter. In respect of changes to timings, an assessment will be undertaken in consultation with users and carers and alternatives provided where necessary.
