Agenda item

The Area Council Manager explained that to date 3 contracts have formally completed contract monitoring and contract management reporting.  These are Barnsley Community Build, Kingdom Security and C and K Careers.  The Barnsley Community Build and Kingdom Security contracts are meeting their milestones and outcome indicator targets and the Councillors commented on how pleased they were with these initiatives.  There is overall satisfaction with delivery against the C & K Careers project although a couple of the outputs are ‘amber’ RAG rated, and these are being addressed. 

A discussion took place regarding anti-social/youth nuisance problems being experienced in local parks.  It was felt that the restructure of the Police and associated reduction in resources has led to an increase in problems of this nature, which will take some time to settle down.  It was felt that Berneslai Homes and Housing Associations also have a part to play in tackling this problem.  Members were urged to continue to report problems to the Police.

RESOLVED that the North East Area Project Performance report be received and noted.
