The Government announced £170 million cut in the funding of community pharmacies in England this year which would lead to closure of a quarter of our local pharmacies (45 down to 33) in Hackney. Could the Cabinet Member for Health, Social Care and Devolution tell us what the council is planning to do to force the Government to re-think this plan and to ensure that the people of Hackney do not lose the vital access to medicines, healthcare advice, Public Health Services that we commission through Community Pharmacies such as Stop Smoking and Sexual Health Services, and employment that these pharmacies are providing?

  Councillor Odze raised a point of order under part 4.1, paragraph 3.2 of the Council’s constitution and stated that questions to Council were not in the requisition of the meeting. In response, the Speaker explained that the meeting had not been in the original calendar of meetings, however the agenda setting out the business to be considered which included questions to Council had been published within the 5 clear working day ruling. Mayor Glanville had also contacted the leaders of the opposition groups before scheduling the meeting, who had agreed to an extraordinary meeting.

 

5.1  From Cllr Abraham Jacobson to the Cabinet Member for Neighbourhoods, Transport and Parks:

  “What is being done to increase residents’ participation in recycling so Hackney Council will meet the targeted 50% recycling rate by 2020?”

 

  Response from Cllr Demirci

Councillor Demirci advised that Hackney had one of the most comprehensive recycling services in London including 3,500 communal food waste bins for blocks of flats and estates; over 100 banks for clothes and textiles; 520 recycling on the go bins and 15 collection points for electrical items and light bulbs.

 

Councillor Demirci informed Council that on average 85% of residents regularly put out recycling for collection. The spread of participation runs between 62% to 93% but there was scope for improvement particularly in Shoreditch, Haggerston and Cazenove. Councillor Demirci explained that despite the achievements, Hackney together with many other inner London authorities had a lower recycling performance and 50% was an extremely difficult target to achieve and maintain for the North London Waste Authority as a whole. There were a number of key factors contributing to this including the fact that most estates and blocks were built before recycling services existed, with no space for separating and storing recycling. She added that the new estates being built complied with planning standards for recycling and waste management and physical improvement works were underway at various estates within the Borough.

 

In response to a supplementary question, Councillor Demirci agreed that there was more to be done to improve the level of recycling on estates within the Borough and advised that there were already a number of projects in place in help increase participation. She added that this was a problem across the inner London Boroughs and Hackney was leading on improvement projects.

 

5.2  From Cllr Sharon Patrick to the Cabinet Member for Housing Services:

“Could the Cabinet Member for Housing Services please let us know about the kitchen and bathroom work that is currently happening in Kings Park ward and what the future plans are?

 

 

 

  Response from Cllr McKenzie

Cllr McKenzie told Council that during the course of this municipal year the Council would be installing new kitchens and bathrooms on a number of Estates in the Borough. Chatsworth Estate was programmed for 2017/18, however this might be brought forward into the current financial year. 

 

5.3  From Cllr Will Brett to the Cabinet Member for Planning, Business and Investment:

“To ask the Cabinet Member for Planning, Business  ...  view the full minutes text for item 5.

6.1  Councillor Odze raised a point of order regarding part 4.1, paragraph 9.1 of the Council’s constitution, stating that the Mayor could only make a statement at ordinary meetings and it did not specify extraordinary meetings. In response, the Speaker confirmed that the Mayor’s Statement was included in the agenda for the meeting which had been circulated prior to the meeting and asked Mayor Glanville to proceed with his statement. 

 

6.2  Mayor Glanville took the opportunity to thank everyone that had supported him in his campaign and informed Council that he had received 69% of the local residents’ votes and confirmed that he would be a Mayor for all residents of the Borough, making Hackney a place for everyone. Mayor Glanville advised that this was his first statement to Full Council as Hackney’s second directly elected Mayor and referred to the amazing legacy which former Mayor Pipe had left behind.

 

6.3  Mayor Glanville stated that the Council had come a long way over the last 15 years and he would work to protect everything that had been achieved so far including excellent council services, the best schools and public facilities, as well as strong council finances. Alongside that, the Mayor’s priority would be to address the growing inequality in the Borough. As a Council it was recognised that, whilst the Borough had changed for the better, the unintended consequences of that change have had negative impacts. Hackney was experiencing rapid growth, both in its economy and population, which created major challenges as well as opportunities. Mayor Glanville stated that it was important to keep the community involved at every stage to encourage a feeling of community involvement.

 

6.4  Mayor Glanville thanked the newly appointed Deputy Mayor Bramble and introduced his newly appointed Cabinet Members which were diverse and reflected Hackney’s communities, as follows:-

 

  Cabinet Appointments

 

Councillor	Position
Cllr Anntoinette Bramble	Deputy Mayor (includes Children’s Services portfolio

Cllr Caroline Selman	Community Safety and Enforcement
Cllr Carole Williams	Employment, Skills and Human Resources

 

Mayoral Adviser Appointments

 

Councillor	Position

6.5  A copy of Mayor Glanville’s Mayoral priorities was laid around the Chamber and these would shape what the Council did over the next two years.

 

6.6  Mayor Glanville stated that the Council had already achieved a lot in terms of building new Council homes and new shared ownership properties. He would continue to increase the Council’s efforts, working with the new Mayor of London to achieve more genuinely affordable housing for Hackney, including building the first 500 homes at the new London Living Rent.

 

6.7  Mayor Glanville would create 100 Hackney Council apprenticeships every year and expand the Council’s Ways into Work service, to ensure  ...  view the full minutes text for item 6.

RESOLVED that the Children’s Social Care Bi-Annual Report be noted.

7.1  Deputy Mayor Bramble introduced the report giving an oversight of activities within Children’s Social Care including performance updates.  The report had also been considered by Hackney’s Scrutiny Commission and Cabinet. Deputy Mayor Bramble outlined a number of developments and areas of note in the period April 2015 to March 2016 including:

 

·  Hackney continued to have a lower number of children in care than comparable local authorities

·  Hackney achieved the best results in the country for 5 A-C GCSEs with English and Maths at 34.6 compared to a national average of 12% and was second in the country for performance in GCSEs at 38.5 % compared to the national average of 16.3%

·  13% of Hackney’s care leavers were in higher education, compared to 6% nationally, ranking Hackney 4^th in the country

·  Work was being carried out in a more integrated way with the realignment of the Youth Offending Team

·  Recruitment of foster carers continued to be a priority for Children’s Social Care. A priority within this was to ensure the right support for the assessment of foster cares and improved training offered for foster carers. 

·  Ofsted results had been outstanding in relation to care leavers

 

7.2    Deputy Mayor Bramble told Council that she had recently observed an adoption in progress and witnessed the good support and encouragement that families received. She said that Children’s Social Care had a statutory duty to respond to complaints about services offered to children and families and that there had been an increase in advocacy in relation to this. This provided an opportunity to learn about what was not working well in the service, implementing change and improving practice. 

 

7.3    Councillor Odze confirmed that he had declared an interest in this item as his wife had been a social worker in Hackney. He told Council that he considered that the service had improved beyond recognition. He referred Council to section 7.2 of the report and the grammatical error in the penultimate line.  He expressed concern at the need to go out of Borough to secure foster places.

 

7.4    Councillor Kennedy told Council that he had been delighted that the report had been considered by the Children and Young People’s Scrutiny Commission. 

 

7.5   Councillor Mulready congratulated Deputy Mayor Bramble on the improvements in Children’s Social Care. She told Council that she had once been in care and emphasised the importance of housing and education and support to children coming out of care.

 

7.6    Deputy Mayor Bramble confirmed that much work went into supporting children in leaving care institutions. There was no room for complacency in this area. She said that good work in children’s care and the positive experiences of children in care were celebrated and that the Council was proud of what had been achieved so far. Deputy Mayor Bramble had accompanied the Chief Executive on some of his Roadshows, setting out the vision for this area of work and thanking staff for their work.

 

RESOLVED that the Children’s Social Care Bi-Annual Report be  ...  view the full minutes text for item 7.

RESOLVED that the recent use of the special urgency provisions as set out in paragraph 4 of the report be noted.

8.1  The Director of Legal introduced the report and commended it to Council.

 

RESOLVED that the recent use of the special urgency provisions as set out in paragraph 4 of the report be noted.

RESOLVED that amendments to the Constitution as set out in the Schedule of Changes, attached at Appendix 1 to the report, be approved.

 

9.1   The Director of Legal introduced the report and commended it to Council.

 

9.2  Councillor Steinberger expressed concerns about the cost of the new executive arrangements with the appointment of Mayoral Advisers and questioned whether there was a budget in place for this. Mayor Glanville reassured Council that the members’ allowances scheme allowed for 9 full-time Cabinet Members. There were currently 2 part-time Cabinet Members which, with the newly appointed Mayoral Advisers, was the equivalent of 9 full-time members. The proposals would be subject to a Members’ Allowances report being reported to Council on 30 November.

 

9.3  Mayor Glanville added that given the challenges the Council faced, he believed it was right to have the new Mayoral Advisers in place.

 

RESOLVED that amendments to the Constitution as set out in the Schedule of Changes, attached at Appendix 1 to the report, be approved.

RESOLVED that the Standards Committee’s Annual Report for 2015/16, as attached at Appendix 1, be noted.

10.1  Councillor Webb introduced the report and commended it to Council.

 

10.2  Councillor Steinberger responded to the report and stated that although there was still a Conservative Group vacancy on the Standards Committee, the Group was open to talks to discuss nominating a representative.

 

RESOLVED that the Standards Committee’s Annual Report for 2015/16, as attached at Appendix 1, be noted.

Hackney Council notes:

 

·  Hackney has been an innovative leader for over a decade in education, transforming the educational opportunities for our children in Hackney.

 

·  Working pragmatically within the academy model introduced by the last Labour government, £0.5 billion has been invested in our schools through the Building Schools for the Future, the Academies’ and other major school building programmes, with every  secondary and special school now rebuilt or refurbished with better standards and significant improvements to the education environment in our primary school estate

 

·  We celebrate the fantastic recent results achieved in Hackney’s family of schools, with 67% of pupils getting 5 good A*–C GCSEs, including English and Math.

 

·  The Government’s proposal for re-introducing the opening of new grammar schools will have serious implications for children and young people in Hackney.

 

·  The proposal by the government to re-introduce the opening of new grammar schools will worsen social mobility and re-introduce the terrible segregation abolished by the creation of comprehensive education in the 1960s Labour government.

 

We propose that the Council:

 

·  Supports the 'inclusive education' campaign launched by our Mayor Philip Glanville and Deputy Mayor Anntoinette Bramble.

 

·  Supports the Hackney approach of working with our local schools, teachers, parent governors and communities to continue building on the relationship between the council and communities in Hackney.

 

·  Condemns proposed changes to the school national funding formula, which would impose a one-size-fits-all approach, stripping funding from inner city school and putting decades of improvements to London’s school at risk.

 

·  Backs an inclusive comprehensive education system, democratically accountable to local communities and protected from austerity.

 

·  Resists the forced academisation of all schools and the abolition of parent governors.

 

·  Opposes the expansion of Grammar schools and selective education.

 

·  Works with other councils, trade unions, parents and governor groups to oppose the provisions in the White paper.

11.1  Councillor Coban introduced the motion and stated that he had witnessed first-hand the transformation of the education system within the Borough. Councillor Coban informed Council that in 2003, 50% of residents chose to send their children to schools located outside the Borough. In the past decade this had dramatically changed following a £0.5billion investment in the schools within the Borough through the Building Schools for the Future, the Academies and other major schools building programmes. The Council had achieved the unthinkable in becoming one of the leading boroughs for education within the country and should be very proud of its achievements.

 

11.2  Councillor Coban believed that the Government’s proposal to re-introduce the opening of new grammar schools would worsen social mobility and create segregation within the communities. He believed that comprehensive education was the best hope for the future of the Borough and stressed that every child matters.

 

11.3  Councillor Conway seconded the motion and shared her personal experience of schooling and knew the impact a poor education had on young people. Councillor Conway questioned an education where only the top percentage of pupils were pushed forward, which was not in line with the values of the Council. She added that Hackney was a great example of where good investment in comprehensive schools could achieve great results.

 

11.4  Councillor Burke commended the motion and stated that he was also against the re-introduction of grammar schools which he believed created segregation. He urged the Council to do all it could to protect children against the Government proposals.

 

11.5  Councillors Kennedy, Desmond and Etti all supported the motion and contributed to the debate. They recognised the great achievements made in education within the Borough and urged the Council to promote a more inclusive form of education for all young people.

 

11.6  Councillor Odze spoke in objection to the motion and highlighted the great achievements of the top 10 grammar schools within the country. Councillor Odze stated that the proposal by the Government introduced a fairer education system for everyone, providing more choice.

 

11.7  Mayor Glanville spoke in support of the motion and reiterated the importance of providing schools for all children.

 

11.8  Councillors Jacobson and Sharer did not support the motion and believed that grammar schools were a centre of excellence for all.

 

11.9  In response, Councillor Coban did not believe that grammar schools provided choice and stated that they were bound to achieve better results. He had been out in the Borough over the past few weeks campaigning and gaining signatures from residents against the proposal to re-introduce grammar schools.

 

11.10  Deputy Mayor Bramble responded to the motion. Deputy Mayor Bramble explained that the Council’s schools were 1^st for Key Stage 1 for reading and writing, 5^th for KS2 results and 6^th for the percentage of primary schools that had a good or outstanding Ofsted result. Deputy Mayor Bramble was committed to education and opposed the Government’s funding cuts and proposed re-introduction of grammar schools. Deputy Mayor  ...  view the full minutes text for item 11a
