Agenda item - Greater Brighton and Coastal West Sussex Background Papers

Report of the Chair, Greater Brighton Officer Programme Board (copy attached).

1)    That the Board notes the Greater Brighton and Coastal West Sussex background papers and executive summary.

9.1         The Board considered a report of the Chair, Greater Brighton Officer Programme Board that reported the final versions of the three background papers commissioned by the Board to provide evidence and inform future strategic decision-making within the Greater Brighton and Coastal West Sussex on economy, housing market and transport systems.

9.2         Councillor Wall stated that he welcomed all three background papers but suggested that it would be more appropriate for the Board to resolve to note rather than approve the final versions as there were actions recommended that the Board may not be able to achieve, particularly with regard to housing development.

9.3         The Chair moved a motion to amend the recommendation, as shown in bold italics below:

2.1    That the Board note the Greater Brighton and Coastal West Sussex background papers and executive summary.

9.4         The Chair put the motion to a vote which was agreed.

9.5         RESOLVED- That the Board note the Greater Brighton and Coastal West Sussex background papers and executive summary.
