The Chair will consider the admission of any late items of Urgent Business. (Late items of Urgent Business will be considered under the agenda item where they appear. New items of Urgent Business will be dealt with under Item 23 below. New items of exempt business will be dealt with at Item 28 below).

The Leader advised that there were no new items of urgent business.

However, there was one item of late business to consider, relating to item 13 on the agenda which the Leader had accepted. This was the draft action plan listed as Appendix 2, for submission to Ofsted. This was marked to follow in the published agenda pack.

The Leader outlined that the Ofsted Improvement Plan provided additional information about the actions that would need to be taken to deliver the improvements identified in the Ofsted Report. As the action plan was due to be submitted to Ofsted on 18^th March 2019, the service has been confirming the final details. The appendix required consideration with the Ofsted report and could not await the April Cabinet meeting due to the prescribed Ofsted submission date.
