Purpose

The report recommends the fixed-term
recruitment of a Bond Scheme Officer via agency. There have been
three attempts to recruit to the post, and one attempt to tender
the scheme to an external provider which have all unfortunately
been unsuccessful. Recruitment to the post is recommended both to
achieve homelessness prevention and relief outcomes for residents
in the private rented sector, and to prevent the loss of grant
attached to the post. The recommendation is for the recruitment of
one officer via agency until 31st March 2025.
