The Committee received a report from the Environmental Health Manager updating Members on the work officers had undertaken to explore possibilities for financial support options to assist CCTV implementation.

In response to Members’ questions the Environmental Health Manager said the following:

      i.         Due to procurement rules the Council was not able to recommend companies who could install CCTV in taxis. The Council provided a CCTV specification; it was a matter for taxi vehicle owners to ensure that any installation of CCTV was done in accordance with the specification.  

The Committee:

Noted that officers had investigated possible financial options for installation of CCTV and unfortunately there was no financial support available from the agencies. However, companies did offer some financial options to support with the payment for CCTV implementation.
