PART 1 - PUBLIC
MATTERS FOR RECOMMENDATION TO THE CABINET
COM 11/005 Tonbridge and Malling Seniors (TAMS) Forum - Update
The report of the Chief Executive provided an update on recent meetings held by the TAMS Forum.

Members were concerned with two particular issues arising from the minutes: difficulties with public transport services particularly Pembury Hospital; and current changes proposed for Kent County Council (KCC) funding of key voluntary sector bodies.

RECOMMENDED: That the Leader and Cabinet Portfolio Members for Communities and Community Safety be requested to pursue all available avenues to seek an urgent review of KCC funding arrangements for key voluntary sector bodies with a view to a reinstatement of direct funding arrangements with each agency in place of KCC funding being made to bodies outside the Borough, thus requiring local bodies to work jointly with them.
