38.2      Nick Hibberd clarified that the tender proposals for this matter were currently advertised and the issues raised by Councillor Wall as discussed by the Board at the previous meeting were clearly set out in the specification of that tender.

38.6      Dean Orgill noted that minute item 31.14 should be amended to read “Brighton & Hove Economic Partnership” rather than “Brighton & Hove Business Partnership”.

38.7      RESOLVED- That the minutes of the previous meeting held on 13 February 2015 be approved as the correct record subject to the above amendments.
