To commit forward funding for the next stage of the SRP Design Development, in anticipation that we will receive the Safety Valve Programme capital grant.
NB: This decision is being taken under the general exception procedure as it has not been possible to give 28 days’ notice. The Council was expecting a decision from the DfE by the end of March on the Council’s capital bid. Despite multiple attempts to chase, a decision has not been received from the DfE. Failure to fund the work now would delay provision of the SRP.
