RESOLVED:

 

That Committee:

 

1.   
Agreed to extend the seasonal lifeguard service to a
further three beaches, as outlined in para 4.5 as soon as
practicably possible. This is subject to the recruitment and
availability of qualified and appropriately trained
staff.
 

2.   
Noted the risk-based approach to prioritising the
beaches which will have lifeguard stations during the recruitment
of additional qualified and trained staff.

 

3.   
Noted the additional financial requirement of net
£0.093m to extend the service after budget savings already
taken. For 2023/24 financial year this will be covered by service
efficiencies across the seafront budget.
