This item was moved up the agenda with the agreement of the Chair.
The Chair of the Grant Advisory Panel gave the committee an overview of the application process for round 6 of the Foreshore Trust Small Grants Programme and answered questions from members of the committee. He commented that this had been a particularly competitive round of grant allocations, with a total of 39 applications for funding received. Following a full assessment process, the panel had recommended that 15 of the applications for funding be approved at various levels and subject to certain conditions.
Following comments made by the Grant Advisory Panel during this round of grant allocations, the Assistant Director, Regeneration and Culture, had recommended that a review of the grant guidelines be undertaken prior to next round of small grants in 2017.
The committee thanked the Grant Advisory Panel for their efforts appraising the applications.
Councillor Cartwright proposed approval of the recommendations to the Assistant Director, Regeneration and Culture’s report, which was seconded by Councillor Forward.
RESOLVED (unanimously) that –
1. Charity Committee accept the small grants recommendations of the Grant Advisory Panel, as set out in Appendix 1 of the Assistant Director, Regeneration and Culture’s report, and;
2. Charity Committee agree to review the small grants guidelines to address the issues as set out in the report
The reason for this decision was:
The Grant Advisory Panel has appraised the merits of the applications for funding received for small grant support and has made a number of recommendations for grant awards that can be funded for the 2016-17 budgets. These were assessed with detailed discussion on each application at two Grant Advisory panel meetings held during July 2016.
