Forward Plan

What is the Forward Plan?

Forward Plan is a list of the key (major) decisions that the Council will make giving a minimum of 28 days notice. The Plan is updated regularly.

What is a key decision?

Key decisions are defined as an Executive decision which is likely: -

● to result in the Council incurring significant expenditure or making savings which are above a financial threshold set by the Council (by way of guidance, the Council has decided that significant expenditure or savings are £250,000 or more, having regard to the Council’s approved budget for the service or function to which the decision relates), or

● to be significant in terms of its effects on communities living or working in an area comprising two or more electoral Wards in the area of the Council.

What does the Forward Plan tell me?

The Plan gives information about: -

● What key decisions are coming forward ● When those key decisions are likely to be taken ● Who will make those decisions ● What consultation will be undertaken ● Who you can make representations to, and how ● What documents will be presented ● Who you can contact for further information ● Whether the discussion and documents will be open to the public

Who takes key decisions?

Under the Council’s Constitution, key decisions can be taken by the Cabinet, Cabinet Committees, Area Committees, an individual member of the Cabinet or an individual officer acting under delegated powers.

However, most key decisions are taken at public meetings of the Cabinet, Cabinet Committees or Area Committees. The dates of these meetings are scheduled and agendas and reports are available for public inspection five working days before the meetings.

City Economy Manager First Date of Entry 22 September 2017

Likely date of decision 22 January 2018

Subject Humber LEP – Industrial Strategy

Decision so ught (NB if the Agree the Council’s contribution to the production of a decision relates to a matter Humber Industrial Strategy, also referred to as the within a specific Area of the Humber Proposition, which will be submitted to City, the relevant Area Government following production of guidelines. Committee can deal with it or advise Cabinet on it) Portfolio Holder Cllr Mancey Decision to be taken by Cabinet (and membership of the body)

Summary of issues: Following the publication of the Government’s Green Paper outlining the need to develop an Industrial Strategy, to which the Council contributed to the Humber LEPs response, the Government has outlined its proposals to develop and agree an Industrial Strategy for the UK as a major aspect of its future economic growth agenda.

For Hull, the proposal is to support a Humber LEP Industrial Strategy approach, similar to that presented by the Humber Strategic Economic Plan, through the development and inclusion of an appropriate contribution reflecting Hull’s economic opportunities and needs.

Whilst development of the Hull contribution can progress to meet the expected decision-making date, the development of an Industrial Strategy for the Humber and therefore for Hull, is still subject to the publication of additional guidance from Government.

It has been agreed, through the Humber LEP, that submissions from the four Humber authorities will be agreed by the relevant Executive Committees (Cabinet) Financial Implications: There are no direct financial cost implications arising from the agreement of an Industrial Strategy as outlined as the proposed activities outlined will be developed using existing resources. However, the agreement of the contents of the Strategy will be the major consideration in the securing of additional Government funding streams to further economic growth activity in the city. The Government is currently developing proposals for a Prosperity Fund as the major future funding opportunity for partners, including accommodating the implications on EU funding as incorporated in Brexit negotiations Other implications for the The agreement of the content of the Hull’s element of Council: the Humber Industrial Strategy submission will be the major economic framework for furthering the relevant aspects of the City Plan and delivering future public funds for economic and infrastructure investment to deliver future incisive economic growth.

KINGSTON UPON HULL CITY COUNCIL NOTICE OF KEY DECISION

City Manager Ref No. 0024/17

Interim City Learning & Skills Manager, Graham Talbot First Date of Entry 8 June 2017

Likely date of decision Not before 7 July 2017

Subject Transfer of freehold land at:

a) Sidmouth Primary School b) Thanet Primary School c) Woodland Primary School

Decision sought (NB if the decision relates to a matter within (1) Transfer of the freehold land, in line with statutory a specific Area of the City, the requirements, on detailed terms to be agreed by the relevant can deal Town Clerk, at: with it or advise Cabinet on it)

a) Sidmouth Primary School b) Thanet Primary School c) Woodland Primary School

Portfolio Holder Cllr Hale Decision to be taken by Director of Children, Young People and Family Services, (and membership of the body) Alison Murphy

Summary of issues: These schools are currently Trust Schools (also known as a foundation school with a foundation).

The Schools had previously been community schools and became Trust Schools pursuant to the School Organisation (Prescribed alterations to maintained schools) () Regulations 2007 made under the School Standards and Framework Act 1998.

At this time the beneficial interest in the land vested in the School’s relevant trust. Since that time the Schools have been entitled to a transfer of the Council’s freehold title to the land in order to register the land at the Land Registry in the name of the Trust. This has not happened to date and the current position is that the legal titles to the land are still in the name of the Council, with the Trust holding an interest in the land as vested proprietor. However the Trust has now indicated that is wishes the land transfer to take place, as it is entitled to do.

The authority for the Director of Children’s Services (in consultation with the Town Clerk, City Treasurer and City HR Manager) to make this transfer to the Trust is contained in an amendment to the Scheme of Delegation approved by the Leader of the Council dated 14 th February 2013, ref: SB/124/2013

Financial Implications: There are no direct financial implications for the Council as this decision merely seeks to formalise a freehold transfer that operation of law deems to have been made when the school transferred to Trust status Other implications for the Council: N/A Documents to be submitted to the Decision record with accompanying report decision maker for consideration Is the matter confidential/exempt? No If yes please quote the relevant paragraph of the Local Government Act 1972 and provide reasons why exempt Who we intend to consult and how This decision will implement statutory requirements and therefore no consultation is required How others can make At the address below representations about this matter including (if the matter is identified as exempt) upon whether the matter should be considered in public Deadline for representations (NB: 8 working days before the above decision date date cannot be before first date of entry into the Forward Plan)

City Manager Ref No. 0025/19

Alex Codd Assistant Director, Economic First Date of Entry 18 April 2019 Development and Regeneration

Likely date of decision 22 July 2019

Subject East Riding and Hull Joint Minerals Local Plan: Adoption

Decision sought (NB if the That the Joint Minerals Local Plan (JMLP) be adopted decision relates to a matter as part of the development plan for Hull.. within a specific Area of the City, the relevant Area Committee can deal with it or advise Cabinet on it) Portfolio Holder Councillor Hale Decision to be taken by Cabinet and Full Council (and membership of the body)

Summary of issues: The East Riding of and Kingston upon Hull Joint Minerals Local Plan (JMLP), was submitted to the Secretary of State late in 2018 and was subject to an independent Examination in Public in Jan 2019. Once adopted, it will form part of the statutory Development Plan covering both the East Riding and Hull and will replace the existing Joint Minerals Local Plan (2004).

The JMLP has been prepared to take account of comments received throughout its preparation. Following Examination hearings some proposed modifications were published for consultation for 6 weeks to 23 April 2019. Subject to the Inspectors consideration of responses and his final report, the Plan will be capable of adoption at the proposed dates of decision.

The Plan takes account of updated evidence of demand for aggregates set out within the Humber Local Aggregates Assessment and Aggregates Apportionment Background Paper.

Financial Implications: There are no immediate financial implications related to adoption of the plan. The Council has shared an element of costs, with the Council, related to the production and examination of the plan.

Associated costs have been met within the 2018/2019 Planning Department’s budget for plan production work. Other implications for the The most significant implication of the JMLP for Hull is Council: the role it plays in safeguarding of minerals infrastructure that exists within the city. The Plan does not identify mineral reserves within Hull and so there are no directly relevant policies regarding safeguarding of minerals reserves. The adopted Hull Local Plan has already made provision for safeguarding of minerals infrastructure in the city. The JMLP will present this policy approach within the context of the wider Minerals Plan although will not supersede that in the Hull Local Plan when adopted. Documents to be submitted to East Riding of Yorkshire and Kingston Upon Hull Joint the decision maker for Minerals Local Plan (JMLP) proposed adoption plan consideration document.

Decision sought (NB if the Agreement for Hull City Council to progress ERDF decision relates to a matter funding application and accept Accountable body status within a specific Area of the for the project and to enter into the Funding Agreement City, the relevant Area in relation to thereto. Committee can deal with it or advise Cabinet on it) Portfolio Holder Councillor Hale Decision to be taken by Leader’s Decision Record (and membership of the body)

Summary of issues: An ERDF support application is being made to deliver a new three year scheme for Small and Medium Sized businesses (SMEs) based around low carbon/adopting energy efficiency measures. If the bid is successful, the Council as Accountable Body will need to sign the Funding Agreement (a contract) to deliver the project. The Regeneration Directorate are currently successfully delivering three other business support projects covering ICT, Investment readiness/finance and business growth. This project will operate on similar lines, complementing that provision. Financial Implications: The grant application is for £1.8M. With match funding (from SMEs), the total project cost is projected to be £3M. There is no financial contribution required from Hull City Council. Delivery of the project will require a number of new posts (three proposed) which will be fixed term and 100% paid via the ERDF grant. There will be a requirement for the council to cash-flow the project in advance of claims being made to the funder. It is expected that claims/payments will be approximately six months behind spend. The application is at full application stage having been previously agreed at outline. It is expected that a decision will be made around October/November with the project starting delivery in January 2020.

Other implications for the By not progressing the application, there is a risk that no Council: other applicants emerge and ultimately funding allocated for the Humber not being accessed to support SMEs with low carbon/energy efficiency projects. Where applications are approved, the Government has confirmed that it will guarantee EU funding for structural and investment fund projects signed before the UK’s departure from the EU, even when projects continue after Britain has left the EU, where projects meet UK priorities and value for money criteria.
