Geoff Hall Executive Director presented a report which explained that the Council adopted a Covid-19 Recovery Strategy for the Authority on 30.6.20.   The report detailed the actions that the Council was taking, together with partners where appropriate, to facilitate recovery from the Coronavirus Pandemic.   It included both internal actions for the Authority and those that are externally focussed upon the economy and community served by the Council.  It was explained that it was clearly a moveable feast with the current Covid restrictions and levels of infection, but this document set out a direction of travel to ensure the Council was in a position to react and to move towards recovery.

Attention was drawn to the work being carried out with partners such as the NCC, Public Health NHS and CCG.

Credit and thanks were given by Cabinet members to the large numbers of staff who had worked for the benefit of the community during the covid restrictions. 

RECOMMENDED:     That the proposed Recovery Action Plan attached to the report is adopted.
