That the proposed
approach to managing the transition from the current Dorset Council
Homelessness and Rough Sleeping Strategy to the next statutory strategy, be
approved, and that authority be delegated to the Cabinet Member for Housing and
the Executive Director of Housing, Communities and Prevention, to approve the
updated interim Action Plan for publication in Autumn 2026.
Reason for decision
Developing our new Homelessness and Rough Sleeping Strategy would provide
excellent opportunities to further build upon and expand our Prevention and
Communities agenda as part of the newly formed Housing, Communities and
Prevention Directorate.
