This report invited the Cabinet to approve its response to the Scrutiny recommendations originally presented in the Stage 1 report to the Cabinet meeting held on the 24 September 2025. This response includes: - Action plans for the implementation of agreed recommendations, or; - Indicating where a recommendation is already in progress, or; - Reasons for rejecting the recommendations. Following approval by Cabinet, the response to the scrutiny recommendations will be reported back to the next meeting of either the Scrutiny and Overview Committee or the relevant Sub-Committees. The Constitution requires that in accepting a recommendation, with or without amendment, from a Scrutiny and Overview Committee or Sub Committee, Cabinet shall agree an action plan for the implementation of the agreed recommendations and shall delegate responsibility to an identified officer to report back to the Scrutiny and Overview Committee or Sub Committee, within a specified period, on the progress made in implementing the action plan. Scrutiny’s recommendations highlight potential opportunities for reinforcing performance management, strengthening governance, and increasing transparency for residents. They are presented for consideration, focusing on options that may improve oversight of performance, and service delivery. Should these recommendations be taken forward, they could help deliver the priorities in the Mayor’s Business Plan - embedding good governance (Outcome 1, Priorities 1 & 4).

ENVIRONMENTAL ENFORCEMENT UPDATE
From: Cabinet - Wednesday, 3rd December, 2025 6.30 pm - December 03, 2025
This report provides an update on Croydon Council’s strengthened approach to environmental and regulatory enforcement, directly supporting the Executive Mayor’s Business Plan 2022–2026 priority to make Croydon a cleaner, safer and healthier borough. The report highlights measurable progress since the refocused enforcement was introduced. In 2021 the decision was taken to discontinue the Neighbourhood Safety Team. This service had previously provided a visible on-street presence and supported a broad range of community compliance and environmental enforcement activity. The reduction in frontline capacity affected the Council’s ability to proactively deter and respond to environmental crime. In light of these impacts, and the increasing concern about fly tipping, a new, fit-for-purpose team is being established with a more targeted focus on environmental crime, underpinned by a clear zero-tolerance approach. Since the new Community Compliance Team started in September they have issued over 100 Fixed Penalty Notices for waste-related offences (paragraph 5.8), with early indicators showing a reduction in reported fly-tipping in hotspot areas. The Council has also secured several prosecutions including a £7,951 court fine and costs order against a persistent offender. Broader data demonstrates enforcement outcomes across multiple environmental disciplines (Appendix A in the full report).
