Decision details

Local Enterprise Partnerships Boundary Overlaps

Decision Maker: Shadow Executive

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: Yes

Is subject to call in?: Yes

Decision:

To make a recommendation about the new authority’s membership of a Local

Enterprise Partnership, addressing the overlap of membership in the Buckinghamshire area between the Buckinghamshire LEP (BLEP) and the South East Midlands LEP (SEMLEP).

 

RESOLVED:

Option 1 is the preferred option as this gives the new Buckinghamshire Council a stronger link into central government through the BLEP. This will ensure that funding levered by BLEP will be spent wholly in Buckinghamshire rather than shared amongst a wider area.

Details of any conflict of interest declared: None
