Issue - meetings

To consider requests for grant aid in accordance with the provisions of the Council’s Grant Aid Policy.

Cabinet considered requests for grant aid in accordance with the provisions of the Grant Aid Policy.

RESOLVED that the grant aid requests be approved accordingly:

Age Concern Eastwood                       £2,000

Chilwell Community Association        £3,150

Bramcote Cricket Club                        £1,000

(Having declared an other-registerable interest in the item, Councillor H E Skinner left the meeting without discussion or voting thereon in their specific item of interest.)

Reason

Consideration for not awarding the grant may have a negative impact for the users and individuals relying on the service. The Council is empowered to make grants to voluntary organisations by virtue of Section 48 Local Government Act 1985 (as well as other Legislation). Having an approved process in accordance with legislation and the Council’s Grant Aid Policy would ensure the Council’s compliance with its legal duties
