Report of the Director of Public Relations

Members considered a report of the Director of Public Relations on City Corporation activity with think tanks during 2010-15. A member expressed disappointment that the report did not include elements such as a strategic review of existing engagement, the policy context, policy themes, and cost.

The Chairman commented that think-tank activity to date had ensured that the City Corporation had secured a reputation for engaging with issues of public policy.  He agreed that a paper should be prepared for consideration by the Committee on the Corporation’s strategy on political engagement.
