Minutes:

The Committee was reminded that, at a meeting of the Council held on 10th July 2019, the Council had committed Oldham to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set out at the United Nation’s 2030 Sustainable Developmental Agenda “as far as it is practicable and within its power and resources” and had called for a report to be made to both this Committee and the Overview and Scrutiny Board .

 

The Committee received a report, considered previously by the Overview and Scrutiny Board at a meeting held on 3rd March 2020 and commended to the Council accordingly, highlighting how Oldham was championing and implementing the SDGs, providing an overview of the work that is being undertaken across the Council to support this.

 

RESOLVED that the work being undertaken in Oldham that contributed to the ambitions of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals be noted and the submitted report be commended to Council.
