Pippa looked forward to working with them and having their energy and views represented. Two new Area Community Planning Groups Chairs - Jean Moffat, Bute and Cowal and Sarah Davies, Helensburgh and Lomond – and Gary I’Anson, Divisional Commander, Police Scotland were also welcomed. Apologies were noted as above. 2. Approval of last minutes The minutes from the meeting held in January were approved.

Classification: OFFICIAL 3. Review of previous actions Rona noted that many of the previous actions have now been completed. Updates on outstanding actions were provided as follows: - Chair for Climate Change Working Group will be addressed as part of new governance arrangements. - Partners were reminded of the actions that related to “ALL” and feedback can be provided to the CPP team once these have been completed. - Andy noted that the action to meet with Ross to discuss how telecoms providers assess risk for vulnerability versus likelihood of outages was in progress. ACTION – CPP Team to forward the HMIE Inspection report to the CPP MC membership. 4. Argyll and Bute Outcomes Improvement Plan (ABOIP) 2024-2034 (a) Outcome 2 - Housing Rona advised that the Council hosted an Emergency Housing Summit in November 2023. Matt has collated the actions from that summit and the Management Committee are being asked to consider which actions partners can lead on or provide support to. Housing has also been identified as a priority in the new ABOIP. Pippa added that there are now four Councils in Scotland that have declared a Housing Emergency (including Argyll and Bute) and the issue is being looked at nationally through COSLA, and in the Highlands and Islands via the Regional Economic Partnership and the Convention of the Highlands and Islands. ACTION – Partners to advise john.mcluckie@argyll-bute.gov.uk of actions they can lead, or support on, and are asked to provide contact details for the relevant contacts within their organisations. Matt highlighted the issues around the systemic housing system failures in Argyll and Bute and the lack of housing supply which has knock-on effects on economic growth and provision of services and needs a multi-agency solution. 90 delegates attended the summit and an appraisal exercise after the event identified 34 priority action points under four key themes – delivering more market homes, delivering more homes for workers, delivering more affordable homes and making best use of existing homes. Council officers have identified which actions it could take a lead on and this will be endorsed by Council members before being adopted into the Local Housing Strategy. Matt had identified seven action points that he hoped CPP partners could specifically take a lead on or support:
Page 3
Classification: OFFICIAL - 2.4 Freedom to use Scottish Government housing funding more flexibly and as an allocation with local administrative control. Matt advised that a grant is received by the Council from the Scottish Government called the Resource Planning Assumption (RPA) to facilitate the building of new social housing. The funds are not usually completely spent, and no carry forward is allowed, so it is vital that we try to maximise that spending. Matt encouraged partners to provide collective influence on the Scottish Government to enable the funding provision to be used more flexibly. Rachel offered support with this. Matt noted that the Housing Minister agreed that involvement of Community Planning Partnerships to address housing issues was a positive step. Morag noted the existing efforts of Highlands and Islands Enterprise on this through the Regional Economic Partnership Housing subgroup, with a particular interest in key worker accommodation provision, and is keen to align that work with the actions of the CPP. Takki asked if infrastructure plans, and their impact on housing demand, was included in any actions. Matt said although not specifically addressed there are many actions that cross reference to infrastructure investment and the Council are investing in long term planning to develop infrastructure investment. Pippa added that beyond the housing summit actions, the Council are looking at things like grid connections and are working with the energy sector to include housing plans as part of project requirements. - 2.7 Create funding mechanisms for Community Housing Trusts to finance feasibility studies, professional fees and approval process. Matt noted there are a small number of Community Housing Trusts (CHTs) in Argyll and Bute, particularly on the islands. CHTs can find it difficult to raise funding for the front end development of new housing project developments. Morag agreed the ask on CHTs is complex and was keen to look at how to collaborate better to improve this. Pippa noted there is an option for CHTs to work with Registered Social Landlords to manage those initial processes on their behalf. In connection with this, regarding action 2.8, Evidence the demand for intermediate housing to enable an RSL development pipeline and deliver more mid-market rent and low-cost homes for sale, Morag noted high local demand for rental properties in our area and asked if there was scope for partners to provide workforce planning information to identify what the market rent demands might be. - 3.1 Deliver seasonal and temporary workforce accommodation using short term occupancy agreements. Matt noted that has already been collaboration on Mull to address this and there are a few issues to be resolved in the detail of provision of temporary
Page 4
Classification: OFFICIAL accommodation regarding tenancy, location, type and use of site after housing removal. - 3.2 Develop a strategic approach to evidencing the need for workforce housing in the public sector. Matt sees input by the CPP as being vital to deliver this action. - 3.3 Deliver emergency workforce housing options including the use of modular, temporary and tiny homes. Matt noted it will be important to understand the demand for this then look at the possibility of a collective delivery model. - 3.5 Identify public sector land and buildings which could provide workforce housing via repurposing and change of use. Matt noted the Council have mapped their land but there are no detailed maps of land / property that belongs to other public sector bodies. - 4.6 Develop a better range of housing options for older people to encourage movement in existing housing stock. Matt noted an overlap with HSCP work on this action as it is closely related to care provision for the elderly. Pippa thanked Matt for his input to the meeting on this item and said there are clearly actions that partners can contribute to as it will require the effort of the full partnership to deliver on these. ACTION – CPP team to collate a joint statement on behalf of the partnership, and individual partner organisations are encouraged to also make representation to influence the Scottish Government to allow more flexible spending of housing funding. ACTION – Partners to look at the seven specific actions from the Housing Summit highlighted for community planning partner collaboration, and feedback to cppadmin@argyll-bute.gov.uk with an ideas or offers of assistance. Pippa asked Rona if the intention was to start forming a Housing subgroup. Rona confirmed that and asked Morag, with her informed position from the HiE work on housing, if the CPP team can speak with her when they are collating the responses from partners to come up with plan of approach to take the actions forward. Morag agreed. Kelly noted her interest in members from her team participating in that and informed the committee that the resource planning assumption for affordable housing delivery has been cut by 26% this year, reducing from £18.3m to £13.4m.

Classification: OFFICIAL (b) Outcome 1 Transport Infrastructure John highlighted the work beginning to take forward how the CPP can make improvements against this outcome and wanted to highlight the current Islands Connectivity Plan consultation which is currently open, and closes on 3 May 2024. Transport Scotland are undertaking a number of events to promote the consultation which currently focuses on the strategic approach to the vessels and ports plan and the reliability, resilience, impact and affordability of ferry services which many raised as an issue as part of the ABOIP consultation. Pippa noted this is a priority issue and climate change is going to provide ongoing challenges to transport across the area. Pippa also asked for volunteers from partners to join a Transport sub-group to start identifying and taking forward actions. ACTION – CPP team to forward information on the consultation to CPP MC, and collate a collective response to the consultation on behalf of the CPP. ACTION – Partners interested in joining a transport subgroup to contact cppadmin@argyll-bute.gov.uk (c) Outcome 3 - Community Wellbeing Rona noted the areas of focus for the Community Wellbeing priority and that there is already activity and a workstream in place to address these: - Broadening equality of access to Community leadership opportunities. - Furthering equality of access to services, facilities and community assets. - Working with partners to maximise sustainability of community facilities and services. - Enabling a voice in collective decision making. - Enhancing communications within communities, and - Better understanding how communities achieve a sense of connection and belonging. Rona advised there is ongoing work with Public Health, connecting with the Living Well Programme, to identify opportunities to take forward some of these outcomes and was excited at the work that can be done together on this. More details on the specifics of this work will be made available in the coming months. Takki agreed there was great synergy between the Living Well Programme and this outcome. He advised that a Wellbeing Development Manager has just been appointed, funded by MacMillan Cancer Support and the HSCP and that a work programme will start to be drawn up soon which will feed into this outcome. ACTIONS - Any comments, ideas or volunteers for contributing to the Living Well Programme to be sent to cppadmin@argyll-bute.gov.uk Pippa thanked Rona and Takki for their contribution on this item and noted the opportunity for others to feed into the ongoing work on this.

Classification: OFFICIAL 5. Matters arising from Area Community Planning Groups (ACPGs) Shona noted the ACPGs in all areas had met in February and March, were well attended and considered a wide variety of topics including an update from the Corporate Support Manager on the work around the formulation of area plans, a presentation from the HSCP on Children and Young People's Health and Wellbeing profiles and an update on the draft Argyll and Bute Community Justice Plan 2023 – 2027. All groups reviewed the Terms of Reference and membership, and agreed meeting dates up to May 2025. Shona noted the appointment of two new area group chairs, Jean Moffat in Bute and Cowal and Sarah Davies in Helensburgh and Lomond. The position of Vice Chair in Helensburgh and Lomond will be considered at their next meeting. A Chair is still being sought for Oban, Lorn and the Isles. Recommendations in the report were duly noted and accepted. Bute and Cowal ACPG asked for the Police Scotland proposals for Greenock Police Station to be escalated to the Management Committee, although Shona recognises this is a single partner issue. Pippa encouraged the Bute and Cowal ACPG members to contact Police Scotland directly on this issue. Rona noted it may be useful, if relevant, for Gary to link with officers that have been working on place based approaches around modern workspaces. Gary welcomed that suggestion and was keen to look at modernisation, co-location and place based solutions. He noted the wider Police Scotland appetite to modernise the estate and properly replace services and is aware of strong feelings in communities around these proposals. 6. CPP Governance Rona gave an overview of a proposed new governance structure for the Community Planning Partnership to deliver the actions for the ABOIP outcomes over the next 10 years, and how to best include partners from new areas like Housing and Transport. The Community Empowerment (Scotland) Act 2015 sets out the legislative requirements to deliver Community Planning. The Act recognises six key partner organisations that are responsible for oversight, facilitation and ensuring the delivery of Community Planning. These are: - Argyll and Bute Council. - Health Board (NHS Highland). - Highlands and Islands Enterprise. - Police Scotland. - Scottish Fire and Rescue. - Scottish Enterprise.
Page 7
Classification: OFFICIAL The report notes the additional partner organisations that must participate in the delivery of Community Planning as per the Act. Other relevant partner organisations can be included in delivery but their involvement is not formally legislated. Rona noted the need to move forward with a focus on action delivery, with the ability to bring together lots of partners including those that are legislatively required to take part in delivery. Rona recommended the 6 key partners meet in person, twice per year as an oversight group. A full partnership involving all delivery partners would meet annually for a full day to discuss how they are delivering on the outcomes improvement plan and share information. There would be a significant number of working groups for each individual action (not the three outcomes) meeting fortnightly or monthly, who report to and raise issues as required to the oversight group. There is no proposal to change the setup of Area Community Planning Groups. If these recommendations are agreed, the proposal would be to cancel the planned June CPP MC and host the first Full Partnership day in September 2024 and, in the interim, get resources in place to set up the working groups. Rona noted these proposals were based on her 10 years’ experience of the strengths and challenges in delivering an outcomes improvement plan. Rachel asked how that approach compares with that adopted in other areas. Rona advised this proposal is specifically focused on the delivery of our outcomes improvement plan, however most areas have a Management Board to deliver the legislation but the setup of how that is delivered differs by area based on specific priorities. Rona added that she is confident the proposal delivers best practice and has been liaising with the lead civil servant on Community Planning and looking at the Parliamentary Enquiry into Community Planning. Shona asked how the ACPGs, which meet 4 times each per year, would report into a key partner group that only sits twice a year. Rona suggested the ACPG reporting to the key partner group would change to twice a year but arising issues could be raised to the team and addressed by various working groups. Rona also suggested that as delivery actions against the priorities are firmed up, these would start to appear in the local community planning group spaces. Shona asked if this new model is adopted, could an update on this be provided to the next round of ACPG meetings on how this will work going forward. Rona agreed. Anthony felt shifting the emphasis onto action and delivery was positive. He noted he sits on six different CPPs and none are taking such proactive action as is proposed in Argyll and Bute. He added that the model is simple to explain, streamlined and is geared towards action rather than talking at meetings. Takki echoed Anthony’s view on the positive element of the working groups as that can allow bringing on board experts to specific workstreams. He did note concern about over-streamlining and suggested widening the group at the key partner level to include the TSI as he felt their involvement would be beneficial. Pippa added that due to the integrated nature of the Council and the HSCP it may create a gap not to include them at that top level of the governance structure.
Page 8
Classification: OFFICIAL Rona recognised the value that partners have brought to the Management Committee as it currently exists and noted that in the proposed model that level of engagement where partners can bring in resources, or lead in a space, would happen at the main forum of the Full Partnership. She added that the Parliamentary Inquiry is looking at which organisations should be included for statutory involvement. Andy also felt the working group model was attractive. Climate change is such a cross cutting issue that he felt engaging on a specific working group level makes it easier for him to feed into each outcome and action. Morag was also supportive of the move to focus on delivery. Pippa welcomed the proposal to move back to in person meetings as she felt that was valuable to build relationships between partners. Rona had suggested the key partner group retain the name of Community Planning Partnership Management Committee, but on reflection with comments raised noted that she would reassess the naming of each level to prevent confusion with the current governance structure. Rona advised that the Improvement Service can provide information for Community Planning boards and offer a self-assessment tool that can be used to support new governance arrangements and find a baseline of information on what each partner knows about Community Planning, their role within that, fears, ideas and suggestions on what could work well etc. to create an improvement plan. Rona said previous engagement with the Improvement Service 10 years ago for the last ABOIP resulted in positive change like the creation of the CPP Welcome Pack. Rona asked for agreement to engage on this with the improvement Service to support the changes to the governance structure and ensure the change is positive, and takes everyone’s thoughts and feelings on board. ACTION – Rona and Takki to discuss new governance proposals for CPP. Pippa suggested a short term focus on establishing the working groups. Further changes to the governance arrangements to be considered after the Improvement Service evaluation has completed and brought to the September Full Partnership. 7. Projects (a) CPP Climate Change Strategy and Action Plan In addition to the content of the report provided with the agenda pack, Andy highlighted the linkages of climate change work to the three outcomes of transport infrastructure, housing and community wellbeing and that he has already aligned these to the National and Scottish outcomes. Andy confirmed the funding gap for the climate change post was now closed and thanked the committee members for their contributions to that. The Climate Change Working Group (CCWG) agreed to produce a strategy document and the associated draft action plan and vision statement are still being refined, with a focus on work that provides the most additional benefit, and he has been linking in with Stuart Green on climate linkages with the area plans.
Page 9
Classification: OFFICIAL Andy also highlighted the Climate Action Network Hub (funded by Scottish Government) which although not a CPP project, is adding value to our work on this. He was also going to explore how climate can link in with new outcome action working groups. Pippa said she was happy to see the links from climate work into the three priority outcomes priorities as agreed it will be beneficial to have the CCWG connecting with action working groups. Kelly asked if Housing can be represented on the CCWG. ACTION – Rona to liaise with Kelly to have a representative from Housing on the CCWG and associated action working groups. (b) Climate Change Working Group Terms of Reference Rona provided a brief history of the CCWG, which was set up in 2020 as part of a climate cross cutting theme of the CPP MC which initially began in 2018. The CCWG has fulfilled its objective and a Climate Change Officer (Andy) is now in place, however, the members of the CCWG feel the group should continue albeit with a less frequent meeting schedule of twice per year. This proposed change is reflected in the updated Terms of Reference for approval by the CPP MC. The secretarial support to the CCWG has been provided to date by members of the CPP team, however, offers from other partners to provide that resource in future are welcomed. Sarah felt the continuing of the CCWG was important and that is was a good model for how other action groups can work. Rona noted that as the CCWG action plan takes shape it will be easier to identify linkages to other action groups and partners. The amended terms of reference were approved. ACTION – Partners to consider provision of secretarial support to the CCWG. (c) CPP Community Wealth Building (CWB) Short Life Steering Group Takki noted that there was a full discussion on CWB at the CPP MC meeting in January 2024 and the framework for action draft (which contains the bulk of recommendations) and the Models of Opportunity (community renewables ownership and employee ownership of local businesses) were provided in advance of the meeting. Takki noted further work was required on the recommendations and this could be addressed by a wider steering group, noting the positive example of the CCWG successfully working across, and engaging with, many partners. CWB methodology looks to identify how we retain the wealth generated in Argyll and Bute within our area, and Takki felt it is important to present the report and recommendations to the ACPGs for their feedback. Charlie gave an overview of the methodology used to create the report, which started in June 2023 and involved interviews with multiple stakeholders, consultations, citizen led workshops and presentations to ACPGs to identify CWB activity that was already underway in the area as well as areas of opportunity. Feedback from the presentation to the CPP MC in January has also been included in the report.
Page 10
Classification: OFFICIAL Charlie understands the implementation of the recommendations in the report will not be an “overnight fix”, however, they can be used as reference points to identify quick wins or longer term projects that may need the support of government legislation. Pippa thanked Charlie and Takki and noted the recommendation to go back to ACPGs with the report. Pippa noted the importance for the Full Partnership to take forward the actions on CWB for our local communities, adding the Council’s Economic Strategy includes, and asks, Members to take note of CWB. Pippa suggested work would be required to translate the feedback from the ACPGs into actions to be discussed at the Full Partnership meeting in September, challenging partners to look at a more local approach to delivering CWB. Rona asked how the actions link to other partnerships and forums i.e. the Economic Partnership Forum, and the three priorities of the ABOIP. Takki said this was not currently included in the report and work was needed to align CWB to these. Takki noted that each organisation has different challenges around procurement processes so a “cross-partner procurement group” could be beneficial to address the various challenges around this within the area - it is also important to identify where the overall responsibility for delivery of CWB sits. Takki noted that legislation on CWB was expected by the end of this Parliament. Charlie added that the report contained many links to how CWB can be used to address housing challenges, with knock on effect to community wellbeing, however, models for CWB and transport did not come out strongly in the consultations. Morag observed that many good recommendations are contained in the report and suggested they be put into three categories (1) easily achieved in existing forums, (2) complex and national conversations needed to achieve and (3) unable to take forward without external funding due to constrained revenue positions. She supports further sessions of the CWB steering group to identify which recommendation fits in each category. Samantha supported the recommendations and welcomed the opportunities CWB can present for broader social determinants of health and felt there were procurement opportunities that could be picked up quite quickly. She also felt there was an opportunity to embolden and support ACPGs by increasing their knowledge of what benefits CWB can bring to communities. Pippa agreed the empowerment of ACPGs was important and practical implementation of this can be taken forward by the CWB Steering Group. ACTION – CWB to be added as an agenda item for the September meeting. ACTION – CWB Steering Group to consider practical implementation of recommendations. 8. Digital Inclusion Iain highlighted the planned switch of off PSTN connectivity at exchange level. This switch off which is due by the end of 2025 will have implications as alarm, lift and
Page 11
Classification: OFFICIAL telecare lines etc, which use analogue signals will no longer work. Iain asked partners to assist in raising awareness of this in our communities and he can provide leaflets that can be used to communicate the upcoming changes. Iain has been getting lots of questions on this and is keen to get messaging on this spread as widely as possible. ACTION – Iain to forward leaflet in PSTN switch off to cppadmin@argyll- bute.gov.uk to be circulated to partners to share widely in their networks. Pippa suggested that Iain liaise with Susan Donnelly, Corporate Resilience Manager on this and stressed the importance of this maintaining telecoms connectivity after the PSTN switch off to ensure communication channels are available in emergencies. Jean added that Openreach can provide battery back ups for digital lines that ensure the line can still be used in a power cut. The battery pack costs £85 but Iain advised it can be provided free of charge to eligible people. An alternative option is also available with switches from a digital line to a 4G signal (if available). 9. National policy and community planning (a) Addressing Depopulation Action Plan John advises that this plan has been published. Pippa asked John to circulate a link to the plan to partners and looked forward to see more work moving on this very important issue to Argyll and Bute. ACTION – John to circulate link to the Addressing Depopulation Action Plan to partners. 10. Partnerships reporting to CPP (Annually or by exception) (a) Shaping Places for Wellbeing Alex gave a presentation which provided an update on the Dunoon Shaping Places for Wellbeing project which is due to be completed at the end of June 2024. The key areas that were identified in the Dunoon area were deprivation, alcohol misuse and poverty. The project faced challenges which included no access to the recent (post pandemic) census data, limited amounts of publicly available data, limited availability of data for specific topics such as mental health and no access to data below local authority level. The project has received positive feedback and there is ongoing work to refine the Place and Wellbeing assessment tool and the roll out of training on that is beginning. Alex also invited partners to attend the next steering group of the project.
Page 12
Classification: OFFICIAL ACTION – CPP team to share Alex’s presentation slides on Shaping Places for Wellbeing and a link to the Shaping Places website to partners. Pippa thanked Alex for her work on this project and the learning that can be taken forward and included in place plans. (b) Child Poverty Pippa highlighted the Child Poverty Action Plan and report that were included as part for the agenda pack. These were duly noted. 11. Communication (a) CPP Bulletin John noted the CPP Bulletin has been refreshed and the intention moving forward is to reduce the frequency of the bulletin and arrange each edition thematically around the ABOIP themes. ACTION – Partners to forward any feedback on CPP Bulletin to john.mcluckie@argyll-bute.gov.uk 12. Partner Updates No updates were provided by attending partners. 13. AOCB (a) World Drowning Prevention Day The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service are looking for donations towards their World Drowning Prevention Day event. Rona advised that £2000 has already been donated by the CPP team and Pippa encouraged all partners support this worthy cause. ACTION – CPP team to forward event details, and information on how to donate to partners. 14. Date of next Meeting The date of the next meeting will be confirmed in due course. 15. Close Pippa thanked everyone for attending the meeting which covered a packed agenda. She noted there were plenty of opportunities for partners to get involved with actions and encouraged partners to get involved in action groups.
