(ii)       to instruct the Chief Officer - Corporate Landlord to report to the council budget meeting on 5th March 2019 outlining a high level estimated cost of procuring and fitting stair lifts to all Council owned sheltered housing which has upper floors in the interests of the dignity of residents, public safety and amenity.
