Our LEP and its “decisions” and “minutes”

At its last board meeting (18 May 2016) the Heart of the Southwest LEP “discussed” and ” noted” several things but doesn’t appear to have decided or actually done anything:

Unfortunately, minutes don’t appear until the next agenda is produced in July 2016.

Here is their last set of “minutes”:

Note there is no list of attendees and ” decisions” were to

“approve an approach” to “Growth Deal 3″

” agree to amend a funding allocation” followsing a “recent information from DCLG about changes to European (ERDF) funding for Nuclear build and decommissioning projects”

“note increased risk” to fund the Tiverton Urban extension and the mitigation actions being taken

“agree to delegate management decisions” about its budget to a sub-committee noting “Any variances in budget lines (singly or in aggregate) of more than 10% or £100,000 would require reference back to the board.”
