Resolved:

In respect of the Business Growth Programme –

That following a recommendation from the Investment Committee, the Combined Authority approves:

(i)         That the change request to the Business Growth Programme is approved to provide additional £7 million of funding to the Business Growth Programme. This will be funded from over programming against the Local Growth Fund.  This would take the expenditure approval for the total programme to £34 million.

(ii)        That future approvals are made in accordance with the assurance pathway and approval route outlined in the submitted report.  This will be subject to the scheme remaining within the tolerances outlined within the report.
