Cabinet considered a report which recommended the award of a contract to the preferred bidder set out in the Part B report following a competitive tender in compliance with the Council Tender and Contracts Regulations and Public Contract Regulations. The Cabinet Member for Resources & Financial Governance (Councillor Callton Young) provided Cabinet with an introduction which set out:

• The ANPR cameras would manage the environmental impact of vehicle traffic in the borough; including the management of the vehicle emissions surcharges;
• It was important the council had an automated system as work was currently being undertaken manually and would enable staff resources to be redirected; and
• There were would be increased compliance in areas such as where there are no right turns.

During the consideration of the recommendations, the Cabinet Member for Sustainable Croydon (Councillor Muhammad Ali) noted that the proposed contract award responded directly to one of the points made by Chris Wood and the need to digitise services to achieve efficiencies.
