Agenda item

The Cabinet considered a report of the Corporate Director of Neighbourhoods and Climate Change which set out the proposed approach for Area Action Partnership (AAP) Boards and Teams to return to a greater local presence as the County emerges from the effects of the COVID – 19 Pandemic.  It detailed the funding to be allocated to AAPs and Elected Members this year and set out how that will be managed, including some proposed changes to the requirements and procedures around the allocation of that funding to ensure AAPs comply with best practice and the Council’s procedures (for copy see file of minutes).

Further to questions raised by Councillor Surtees, Councillor Scott’s response included confirming arrangements for the additional staffing resource for the AAPs, dealing with business as usual requests, the development of the application form, and of the support officers could provide if required with completion of the on-line form.

Resolved:

That the recommendations in the report be approved.
