Ms Dee Bonnet addressed the Committee.

 

The Housing and Inclusion Manager introduced the report which outlined the impact of the twelve-month pilot policy. Although individual households had an extended stay in temporary accommodation following refusal of a landlord to accept pets, the amount spend on nightly accommodation had reduced, and there had been no impact on the strategic aspiration.

 

RESOLVED: That

 

1.  The Pet Policy, as set out in Appendix 1 to the report, be approved; and

 

2.  The Policy be named the “John Chadwick Pet Policy”.
