Agenda Item 5
The New Deal
The New Deal is our new
relationship with you
By having honest and open conversations we’ll
get to know you better and develop a relationship
built on trust.
We think this is key to building great communities.

                                                                                                                    Page 24
We’ll support you to take control and build a home
and a community you’re proud of. It might be paying
your rent, health and wellbeing, employment,
volunteering or tackling anti social behaviour;
we’re here to help.
We’ll treat you as a respected partner and in return,
we ask you to do the same.
The New Deal also means that over the next three
years we will look at every part of our business to
make sure residents are at the centre of what we
do, and that our team have the tools they need to
do a good job.This Delivery Plan explains how we
will do this in 2020/21.

                               SHP BUDGET 2020/21
    The Council’s Housing Economy and Business Committee in January agreed to an increase
    of £2.2m in the management fee for 2020/21.

    This increase is to address the following shortfall in funding:
    ● £1061K to rightsize the repairs, voids and maintenance budgets to meet service
      demand, and to deliver repairs and voids through a Direct Labour Organisation.
    ● £253K in additional staff delivering frontline services to residents.
    ● £208K for general services to meet the rising number of right to repair claims and the
      move to the RBK/LBS ICT Shared Service.

    Our New Deal programme now has a specified budget of £428K which will allow us to
