27/05/2020 - Approach to Ongoing personal Protective Equipment Expenditure
RESOLVED:
(1) That the current estimated monthly council expenditure on PPE and approach to purchasing and distribution to maintain this vital supply chain be noted;
(2) That given the likelihood of the current crisis response in relation to PPE may become ‘business as usual’ for the next 12 to 18 months with varied degree of demand and supply context which needs fast response, to grant the Executive Director for Health & Adult Social Care delegated authority to procure necessary PPE following consultation with the s151 officer; and
(3) That it be agreed that the Executive Director for Health & Adult Social Care should provide update reports to each of the forthcoming Policy & Resources Committee meetings, acknowledging the fast-moving policy and operational environment and the broad impact of PPE provision on the humanitarian, economic and social recovery of the city.
