Issue - meetings

(1)   Mr Manning referred to paragraph 3 (5) and explained that he had asked how the Council could ‘realistically’ budget for the future, the answer he received had satisfied him. 

(2)   Mr Christie referred to paragraph 3 (6), the LSC transfer was ‘a unique situation for Kent learners’.  It was understood that a pilot was being run in Kent, however Officers would report back to confirm why this was particularly unique for Kent.  Mr Christie also asked about the previous follow up item requested by Mr Horne on the level of funding package which the Government was offering to Kent County Council in relation to the transfer of the Learning and Skills Council Service.  This information would be clarified and reported back to Members. 

RESOLVED: that the Cabinet Scrutiny Committee approve the notes of the Informal Member Group on Budgetary Issues held on 12 July 2010.
