Consultation process
The public and other stakeholders have been engaged through presentations and existing links with groups and partnerships.
We have used our online consultation portal, our website and made hard copies with consultation questionnaires available at libraries and housing offices.
There has been considerable press coverage raising further the profile of the Housing Plan and opportunities to comment.
Consultees
A consultation draft of the Housing Plan was developed from the Housing Strategy Conference, workshops and associated task and finish groups, which ensured a wide range of partner agency and key stakeholder involvement in its development.
This draft detailed the Housing Plan’s aims and key objectives, and was approved by Cabinet on 15 November 2011 for wider stakeholder and public consultation, due to be completed 13 February.
The Growth and Prosperity Overview and Scrutiny Panel has also been consulted on the draft plan.
The final draft plan will be submitted to Cabinet on 27 March 2012 to make a recommendation to the City Council.
