To receive an introductory report of the Chief Grants Officer relative to grant recommendations.

The Committee considered a report of the Chief Grants Officer, which dealt with recommendations relating to applications received from the current grants programme. Members noted that a total of sixty-five applications would be dealt with at the meeting, of which three were Strategic Initiatives, ten were recommended for approval, thirty-two recommended for rejection, eight had been withdrawn, and five had lapsed. Seven grants were noted as proposed for approval under delegated authority.

At the request of the Deputy Chairman, Officers undertook to review the structure of the report so that information was more clearly presented.
