The report provided an update on the development of growth plans for the South East, for Kent and Medway and for West Kent. It also set out proposals for the development of a local commissioning plan to draw future funding into Kent and Medway from the Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) to support local economic priorities.
Following consideration by the Economic Regeneration Advisory Board, the Cabinet Member for Economic Regeneration resolved that:
1) the comments submitted by the West Kent Partnership on the draft Kent and Medway Growth Plan and the Strategic Economic Plan be endorsed;
2) the draft priority list of local economic projects, as set out in paragraph 1.6.3 of the report, be endorsed; and
3) the Chairman of the South East Local Enterprise Partnership be informed of the Borough Council’s strong support for Government funding to support growth being devolved to the Kent and Medway Partnership.
