Appendix 4

Call-in Request

The undersigned request that the Decision on Item in Cabinet of  16rth July 2026 item 33 Asset Strategy be called in with particular reference to the potential sale of New England house  on the basis of the following grounds as described in the Council Constitution Overview and Scrutiny Procedure Rules:

• 13.1.2 the absence of sufficient evidence on which to base a decision.

Reasons for use of these grounds for call-in are as follows:

Lack of clarity on previous funding of New England House , involvement of potential community interest, lack of consultation of previous and potential users.

We hope this provides sufficient basis on which to call this item in for consideration at a meeting of Place Overview and Scrutiny Committee.

 Kind regards
