Report of the Chair, Greater Brighton Officer Programme Board
Decision:
1) That the Board approve the 2017/18 Annual Report.
2) That Board members submit the 2017/18 Annual Report to their respective organisations.
Minutes:
7.1 The Board considered a report of the Chair, Greater Brighton Officer Programme Board that set out the achievements made in 2017/18 and the key areas of focus for the medium to long-term.
7.2 Dean Orgill asked where the document was published as that would help Board Members circulate the report to partner organisations and promote the work of the Board on an inter-regional level.
7.3 Max Woodford clarified that once approved by the Board, the Annual Report would be published on the Greater Brighton website and an email link to the website page could be circulated to Board Members.
7.4 Councillor Parkin stated that it was important to note that the development at Shoreham Harbour would also have business space and that could be used for high-tech industry, for example.
7.5 Councillor Smith noted that he had recently supplied a copy of the Annual Report to a Local Government Association (LGA) Peer Group Challenge and they had been surprised as to the extent of the success of the Board. Councillor Smith stated that more work needed to be done by business partners and local authorities to promote the work of the Board.
7.6 Alison Addy stated that as a relatively new member of the Board, the Annual Report was very valuable and would help to build a narrative.
7.7 RESOLVED-
1) That the Board approve the 2017/18 Annual Report.
2) That Board members submit the 2017/18 Annual Report to their respective organisations.
