Decision details

Consideration was given to the commercially sensitive information in relation to Item 7: Oldham Community Leisure (OCL) – Utility Benchmarking.

Resolved:

1.    That the Cabinet accept the requirement for Utility Benchmarking, under the terms of the contract and work with OCL to ensure they are able to afford the utility bills and continue to provide an extensive leisure offer.

2.    As is estimated that costs under the contract will increase as a result of the benchmarking exercise and an estimated budget of £0.830m would be needed to support with the utility cost for 2023/24, the Cabinet agrees to make the payment, that is payable under the terms of the contract in line with the cost figure (estimated to be £0.830m in 2023/24).
