Aims and Objectives
This proposal will reduce the funding to external providers of housing support services who have Supporting People Contracts with the Council.
Conclusion
This proposal will reduce the funding to external providers of housing support services who have Supporting People Contracts with the Council. The impact assessment concludes that no unlawful discrimination has been identified but there is likely to be an impact on particular equality groups including age, gender and disability. This is due to the nature of the services provided and reflects the profile of service users. If approved to proceed, the impact of the proposals will be monitored.
