A decision is sought to change the criteria
for the award of capital grants to businesses from the Business
Growth Programme. The change would affect businesses and their
employees across the Leeds City Region, and would require
recipients of grants to deliver additional outcomes as part of the
Combined Authority’s commitment to Inclusive Growth. This
could include the requirement for higher paid jobs, and/or, active
participation in a number of existing projects related to
employment and skills, improved business productivity and
sustainable travel planning.
