In terms of Local Authority planning, the Commissioners have met with their H&S Consultant today to review their Business Continuity Plan.
High on the Agenda was consideration of measures to safeguard and assist residents at the Sheltered Housing Complex at Cooil Roi. The Authority’s Housing Manager outlined the actions that had already been actioned, as well as the staged response that will be made if the public health situation worsens.
In addition, to ensure continuity of the Authority’s core operations, staff will only be attending essential meetings from 13.03.20. It is vital that the Commissioners’ Statutory Meetings continue regularly, however, following advice from our H&S consultant, there may be changes to the way in which the meetings are structured and run. It is anticipated that an announcement will be made in this regard on Tuesday 17th March.
For further information, please contact the Commissioners on 861241 or via email admin@garff.im.
