Section 117 policy

1. Does Devon County Council (DCC) have a joint S117 policy in place? If yes, can we have a copy?

Please see this Devon County Council webpage for the S117 Policy.

2. Does this have a funding tool attached? And if yes, can we have a copy?

The joint protocol includes a section on funding processes and charges but does not have a separate funding tool.

3. Do you have a LA specific policy? If yes can we have a copy?

DCC does not have a separate LA only policy.

4. Are you planning to review your current policy?

DCC is planning to review the policy, however this review is likely to be delayed due to the current pressures caused by the Covid pandemic and the need to prioritise managing the impact of the pandemic.
