Cabinet considered the report of the Head of Housing and the above Cabinet Member.  The Cabinet Member for Finance outlined the policy change in the base-line funding which came into effect in April 2013.  He  also advised of an error in the draft policy at paragraph 2.9.3, the first line of which should read ‘Full Discretionary Relief for clubs will not normally be granted if the organisation operates a licenced bar.’
