2012/13 Grants to Voluntary Organisations

To consider a report of the Communities Team Manager, following consultation with the Director of Housing, on the process for awarding 2012/13 Grants to Voluntary Organisations. 

 

On 1st August 2011 Cabinet approved the Interim Director of Environment to carry out consultation on the following proposals:

·  suspending the current grant application process for awarding grants from the corporate grants budget for 2012/13,

·  renewing 2011/12 grants at current levels, excluding any paid notice, for a further year until 31st March 2013 subject to satisfactory monitoring,

·  reviewing and potentially bringing forward the timing of the grant application process in future years.

Cabinet also delegated authority to the Interim Director of Environment following consultation with the Cabinet Member for Housing to determine whether or not to proceed with the above proposals and, within approved budgets, to take any other decisions necessary or expedient to determine the award of all grants for the 2012/13 financial year.
