Minutes:
The Council had been approached by the NHS to purchase the freehold of the currently unused Barrack Block at Sandown Civic Centre, with funding from NHSE & I to provide a community health hub for the Bay area. Some council services would continue to operate from there with e ‘One Public Service’ approach. Members very much welcomed the investment into the building and were pleased to see it being brought back into use.
The Corporate Scrutiny Committee had noted the report.
