    CQ419 - 11 from Councillor Gerry Ryan

    CQ419 - 11 from Councillor Gerry Ryan LE Can the Leader reassure all Elected Members following the recent scandal of phone and email hacking that none of their Council phones or email accounts has been subject to such abuses. Reply We have no evidence or reported incidents of phone or email hacking. CQ421 - 11 from Councillor Eddy Arram LE If the reserves of the Council were at their August 2005 level would the Council have been in a position to offer help to those residents and businesses that had been affected by the wanton damage caused during the riots to the level that in fact did. Reply Our reserves for the year ended 2005/06 were £4.530m compared to the current reserves balance of £11.597m. This is clearly substantially better than the all time low of a few hundred thousand created by the Labour Administration. It is estimated that the full cost of the damage incurred by Croydon will be met by Government funding. The Government has made available, nationally;- ¾ A £10 million Recovery Scheme to assist Councils with the immediate costs of making their areas safe and clean again, and ¾ a £20 million High Street Support Scheme to both assist local firms that were affected by the riots to rebuild their business and to rebuild community confidence and hence trade in the areas in which they are located. Croydon has an indicative allocation of £2m from this fund. At an early stage the Council identified and put at risk £100,000 to help those families directly impacted by the recent civil unrest in the borough.

  • Open Letter to Address Systemic Racism in Further Education

    Open Letter to Address Systemic Racism in Further Education

    BLACK FURTHER EDUCATION LEADERSHIP GROUP 5th August 2020 Open letter to address systemic racism in further education Open letter to: Rt. Hon. Boris Johnson, Prime Minister, Rt. Hon. Gavin Williamson MP, Secretary of State for Education, funders of further education colleges; regulatory bodies & further education membership bodies. We, the undersigned, are a group of Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) senior leaders, and allies, who work or have an interest in the UK further education (FE) sector. The recent #BlackLivesMatter (#BLM) global protest following the brutal murder of George Floyd compels us all to revisit how we address the pervasive racism that continues to taint and damage our society. The openness, solidarity and resolve stirred by #BLM is unprecedented and starkly exposes the lack of progress made in race equality since ‘The Stephen Lawrence Enquiry’. Against a background of raised concerns about neglect in healthcare, impunity of policing, cruelty of immigration systems – and in education, the erasure of history, it is only right for us to assess how we are performing in FE. Only by doing so, can we collectively address the barriers that our students, staff and communities face. The personal, economic and social costs of racial inequality are just too great to ignore. At a time of elevated advocacy for FE, failure to recognise the insidious nature of racism undermines the sector’s ability to fully engage with all its constituent communities. The supporting data and our lived experiences present an uncomfortable truth, that too many BAME students and staff have for far too long encountered a hostile environment and a system that places a ‘knee on our neck’.
