In this case, the relevant officers were the Directors of Draft Minutes – For approval at the meeting to be held on 15th December 2005 Social Services and Learning and Leisure. The Director of Education Leeds (or his nominee) had also agreed to make himself available to respond to Members’ questions under this item. Attached to the report were copies of a relevant extract from the Council’s Forward Plan of Key Decisions for the period 1st November 2005 to 28th February 2006, together with the minutes of the meeting of the Executive Board held on 21st October 2005. Rosemary Archer, Director of Social Services, and David Dickinson, Deputy Chief Executive, Education Leeds, attended the meeting and responded to the following pre-notified questions:- (a) What support is available to children who act as carers for disabled parents? The officers outlined the extensive assistance and support available via the Willow Young Carers Service provided on behalf of the Council by Barnardo’s on a contract basis, not only to young carers but to other children within families affected by this issue, and regarding the links to schools and the health service in this regard. The Director of Social Services undertook to circulate to Members a copy of the Annual Report of the service. RESOLVED – That the report be noted (b) Please can Education Leeds provide an update from their perspective on admissions to the Academy, both generally and particularly for Year 7 in September 2006? David Dickinson reported that the Academy had a Year 7 published admission limit of 180 pupils. It administered its own admission arrangements in accordance with the national Code of Practice, which did allow for up to 10% of pupils to be admitted on the basis of aptitude. Education Leeds was working closely with the Academy. Demand was likely to exceed the number of places available, but the Academy had to be viewed in the context of the wider School Improvement agenda, aimed at providing good, inclusive local schools for all pupils. Reference was also made to the new-build school proposed for the Primrose High site. Parents of pupils not granted a place at the Academy could appeal to an Independent Appeals Panel, as with any other school. Mr Dickinson also responded to questions relating to the situation whereby some current Year 8 students at Agnes Stewart and Braimwood would have to be found alternative schools due to over-crowding issues. He also undertook to supply Members with a copy of the Academy’s Admissions Policy. RESOLVED – That the report be noted. (c) Please can the Board have an initial reaction to the Schools White Paper? Draft Minutes – For approval at the meeting to be held on 15th December 2005 Chris Edwards, Chief Executive, Education Leeds, joined the meeting at 9.58 am and responded to this question. A lot of the proposals in the White Paper had already been trailed in the media. The thrust of the White Paper seemed to perhaps reflect a certain frustration on the part of the Government that the resources and initiatives aimed at education since 1997 were not yet reflected in terms of the hoped for improved outcomes for children. It also seemed to reflect a ‘market forces’ concept of education provision, with the local education authority as commissioner of services rather than provider, and this was reflected in the idea of Self-Governing Trusts for schools. The concern was that this approach would not actually succeed in delivering the hoped for improvements for disadvantaged pupils. Furthermore, the White Paper did not address the real concerns about mental health, stress and depression among young people and was also light on parental responsibilities as opposed to rights. The White Paper also trailed the demise of School Organisation Committees, a system which had worked well in Leeds. RESOLVED – That the report be noted. (d) What is the current and likely future impact on children of asylum seekers under Section 9 of the Immigration Act, the implementation of which is being piloted in Leeds? Does the authority believe that implementation of this act conflicts with the requirements of the Children Act? The officers outlined the pilot scheme being operated in Leeds in close collaboration and consultation with the Government and the National Asylum Support Service to tackle the Human Rights aspects of the inherent conflict between Immigration and Children Act legislation. Approximately 18 of the 40 families potentially affected across West Yorkshire as a whole lived in the Leeds area. However Social Services did not anticipate final steps being planned in any cases imminently. RESOLVED – That the report be noted. 77 Scrutiny Inquiry – The Impact of Housing Conditions on the Welfare of Children and Young People Further to Minute No 34, 8th September 2005, the Board received further evidence and witnesses in connection with its Inquiry into the impact of housing conditions on the welfare of children and young people The Head of Scrutiny and Member Development submitted a report detailing the agreed Terms of Reference for the Inquiry and the Director of Neighbourhoods and Housing submitted a report outlining the work being undertaken by his Department and the Council in general to increase the supply of family accommodation and the provision of affordable housing across the City. Neil Evans, Director of Neighbourhoods and Housing, Simeon Perry, Megan Godsell and Ernie Gray, Neighbourhoods and Housing Department, Jane Draft Minutes – For approval at the meeting to be held on 15th December 2005 Hall, Education Leeds and Andrea Richardson and Mo Parks, Early Years Service, attended the meeting and responded to Members’ queries and comments. In brief summary the main areas of discussion were:- • The problem of under-occupation

  • Bowls in Leeds: Consultation
    Bowls in Leeds: Consultation ABOUT THIS CONSULTATION Crown green bowls is a popular sport in Leeds, with over 4,000 club members using over 100 greens. It is a distinctive part of our cultural and sporting scene, and is popular with many older people who do not take part in other active sports. Leeds City Council is the major provider, with 71 greens at 50 sites throughout the city. From surveys conducted in 2001 and 2010, there are signs that the sport is in decline with memberships falling by a quarter from 2001 to 2010. This consultation concerns outdoor bowling facilities that are managed by the council’s Parks and Countryside service. The organisation of the council’s greens has not been overhauled for many years, and indeed is still operating under the terms of a lease from 1985. The provision of outdoor bowls is heavily subsidised by the council, nearly quarter of a million pounds each year, and furthermore the council is under acute financial pressure and needs to economise where possible. Savings are needed and a target of £150k was identified in the recent report that went to the council’s executive board. However, the council believes that it will be possible to empower bowls club members to improve the quality of provision for bowls and to help reverse the long term decline of the sport at the same time as reducing the level of public subsidy. This will only be possible with a strategic approach to the sport. It has provisionally identified the following approach to achieving these aims: • Eliminate wasteful expenditure, by removing surplus greens at multi-green sites to retain only the greens which are well used.
