Restricting Access to Websites of Pay Day Lending Companies on Council Websites

Decision:

RESOLVED: that the changes to ICT policy to restrict access to “pay day lenders” by redirect those attempting to access those websites to a Coaching Page be approved

 

Minutes:

The Cabinet considered a report outlining proposals to undertake changes to Council policy to limit the visibility of websites identified as “pay day lenders”, and signpost those seeking to access that facility to appropriate support. It was proposed that a ‘coaching page’ for those trying to access pay day lending websites on Council computers and servers be implemented, restricting access and highlighting the available support.
