Content: The Committee RESOLVED:   1. (unanimous vote in favour) To approve the closure report for the Property Task and Finish Group.   2. (unanimous vote in favour) To approve the Corporate Landlord Surplus Asset Process subject to the wording at para. 10 of the report being amended to read as follows:   The Corporate Landlord will determine which assets will form an effective and efficient estate, including where assets are surplus to requirements. The Strategic Asset Management Plans will help facilitate and define surplus assets in partnership with service areas. Operational assets are determined surplus when they meet any of the three criteria below, or all three where applicable: • They are no longer required for operational delivery (for example, not delivering services for three months). • A strategic decision has been made to streamline delivery in line with corporate priorities. • There is not sufficient revenue budget to maintain the asset to be safe, compliant and suitable to deliver services.   Once an asset is determined surplus, the Corporate Landlord will take a holistic estate view to determine its best future use.   3. To note that the Corporate Landlord Asset Management Strategy will be brought back to the Strategy and Resources Committee for approval.
