Minutes:
The Committee received a report proposing the support to be provided by the Council to voluntary organisations in 2018/19. The following matters were considered:
a) Level of support provided to voluntary organisations. The Committee was informed that the proposed level of support for voluntary organisations in 2018/19 was slightly higher than in 2017/18, due to a revaluation of the notional rent value of Town Hall accommodation provided. There was no increase in any cash grants given by the Council.
b) Review of organisations supported. It was noted that the most recent review of voluntary organisations to which the Council provided support was carried out approximately 5 years ago.
c) Local nature of charities. The Committee was informed that each of the charities supported by the Council was locally based, and that they were not national bodies.
Following consideration, the Committee:
(1) Approved the proposed support for voluntary organisations in 2018/19, as detailed in Annexe 1 to the report.
