Issue - meetings

To update Board members on the appraisal of various options for the delivery of cultural related services including Illuminations, Arts Service, Visitor Services, Events and Marketing together with the LeftCoast arts participation team.

Mr Alan Cavill, Director of Place reported that the idea of creating a culture company had been first developed when making a bid for funding from the Arts Council. He added that although the bid had not been successful the reasons for creating a company had not diminished, namely to help the Council to provide services funded on a discretionary basis. It was reported that a number of other options were being considered and that a more comprehensive report would be provided to a future meeting of the Advisory Board.

The Advisory Board agreed:

To receive a more comprehensive report on culture related service delivery options at a future meeting.
