A task group which reviewed access to council run buildings and open spaces for people with a disability found that Ruby Borough Council makes regular DDA assessments and is proactive in securing funding for projects. External consultees and members of the public who responded to the consultation were thanked for their contributions in the report. The recommendations of the task group were approved by Cabinet and officers are to report back to an overview and scrutiny committee in twelve months time.
