It was detailed that the current accommodation units plan included locations in Bangor, Pwllheli and Caernarfon.

     

    Attention was drawn to the Department's plan to encourage private landlords to lease their property to the Council for a guaranteed rent for a period of 5-25 years. It was noted that the department had managed to attract a grant of over £2.7m to develop these packages and were aiming to bring 100 houses on the Scheme over the next ten years.
