Decision maker:  Cabinet Member for Economic Development and Coastal Regeneration

Decision:   Not before 15th Oct 2025; This decision will be taken via the semi-urgent decision process

Lead officer:  Steve Samson

Decision status:  Recommendations Approved

Notice of proposed decision first published: 07/10/2025

Reason for urgency:
This decision will be taken via the semi-urgent decision process:

Following the commencement of the liquidation process for both organisations in Kent, it has become clear that the tourism industry, key businesses, partners and stakeholders are looking to KCC, and Medway Council, to take a lead on finding a practical solution to support ongoing service delivery in Kent & Medway. Swift restoration of the service is critical to ensure that the county does not get left behind in this important area of work. Following discussions which have considered industry insight, this urgent decision will ensure that a level of ‘Destination Management Organisation’ service and Inward Investment activity can continue in Kent & Medway.

Given financial pressures facing both authorities, immediate work must focus on considering what provision is essential for the area making use of budgets that were previously allocated to the contracts with Visit and Locate in Kent.
