3. Call-in of Community Services & Licensing Committee Decision - Area Tourism Partnership

 

A copy of the call-in request is attached at Appendix 1*.

 

At a meeting of the Community Services & Licensing Committee held on 29 May 2008, the Corporate Director (S151) submitted for information a verbal report in connection with the current position with regard to the Area Tourism Partnership. The draft minute is set out below:

 

The Corporate Director (S151) reported that at the meeting of this committee held on 31 January 2008, Members considered the report, which sought approval to transfer an agreed amount from the tourism budget to the Yorkshire Moors and Coast Tourism Partnership (YMCTP) and extend the secondment of the tourism officers to the partnership. It had been suggested at the meeting that it would be useful to have a Member Briefing on the YMCTP.

 

The Corporate Director (S151) reported for information that the current position was that Hambleton District Council had now committed for the full five years of the partnership business plan, however Scarborough Borough Council had only agreed to being a member of the partnership for one year initially. It was also reported that there were outstanding issues around the value of the agreed contribution from Scarborough Borough Council and that ongoing meetings were being held to resolve the issues.

 

It was noted that a Member Briefing had not yet been arranged and this would be arranged once the current issues had been resolved. A detailed report on the partnership would be presented at the next meeting.
