Decision:
Having considered the original officer report, the OSBP call-in, a written
response to the call in, and presentations by Councillors Curran and Sorba
and the Mayor, the Mayor and Cabinet resolved to uphold their original
recommendations and authorised officers to investigate possible disposals to
the public sector.
Minutes:
The Mayor recognised his manifesto commitment to retain sites in the
Borough of Lewisham and listened carefully to the concerns articulated by two
representatives of the Overview and Scrutiny Business Panel. He concluded
that the rationale in the original report for advocating disposal was sound but
decided to expand the recommendation by asking officers to investigate
disposal to the public sector as a preferred option.
Having considered the original officer report, the OSBP call-in, a written
response to the call in, and presentations by Councillors Curran and Sorba
and the Mayor, the Mayor and Cabinet by a vote of 10-0:
RESOLVED that the original recommendations be upheld and officers be
authorised to investigate possible disposals to the public sector.
