Funding approval has been given to the cost of a new custody suite reported to officials in September 2017 at a total project cost of £3.5m. The cost, in part due to increased planning constraints, has continued to increase. Officials are currently working with professional advisers to understand the costs and timeframes associated with the design to deliver the programme. A revised funding requirement will be subject to internal governance consideration, once a deliverable costed scheme is finalised.
