Under reference to item 5 of the Minute of the meeting of this Board held on 22 August 2022, there was submitted a report by the Lead Officer relative to an update on progress of the Board's review of bulk uplifts.
The report advised that the review was progressing well and research had continued across all areas within the scope. The report looked at existing and potential options which were available to the elderly through partner organisations such as the third sector within Renfrewshire.
After discussion it was agreed that the final report should include: factoring in fairer calculation for affordability; the need to examine both people and the Council when assessing financial impact; reassessing the third sector element to include community groups; considering if there could be a degree of flexibility for third sector organisations; and conducting an impact assessment on how things would develop in the long term in terms of the ageing impact.
