Report of the Assistant Town Clerk and Cultural Hub Director.

The Committee considered a report of the Town Clerk concerning the provision of financial support to assist with the restoration of the bells at St Paul’s Cathedral.

A Member questioned the safety of the bells. Whilst officers were of the view that the restoration complied with any health and safety at work requirements the Head of Culture and Visitor Development undertook to look into the matter.

RESOLVED – that approval be given to the provision of £30,000 to St Paul’s Cathedral for the restoration of the City Corporation’s tenor bell, to be met from the Committee’s 2017/18 Contingency Fund.
