This decision will be taken under urgency procedures.

Reason for urgency:
The Council has now completed the Fire Risk Assessments in October 2019 for all purpose built flats with communal areas. It is the Council’s duty to implement any actions arising from these assessments as soon as it is practical to do so. In order to avoid any delays due to governance process, it is proposed to appoint the contractors to undertake the necessary works with immediate effect. This approach is proportionate in view of the associated risks of delaying implementation of the works.
