Report by Head of Commercial Services

Following approval of the Climate Change and Environmental Action Group Activity Plan by the Policy and Resources Committee in December 2019, and the subsequent global emergency, where resources had been redirected from delivering items on the original Activity Plan, consideration was given to a report seeking to review and reset the workplan based on the current situation and resources available and to map out future work streams that can be delivered within timescale. 

Discussion was had in relation to the timescales for delivering the proposed activity plan; the engagement of the Community Planning Partnership together with the good work of local community groups throughout the pandemic and the proposed merging of action points 8 and 9 on the activity plan.  The Head of Commercial Services agreed to feedback the comments of the group to the Climate Change Board and agreed that it would be best that points 8 and 9 remain as separate actions.

Decision:

The Climate Change Environmental Action Group agreed the revised Activity Plan for Climate Change Environmental Action Group contained within Appendix 1 of the report subject to ensuring that action points 8 and 9 on the Activity Plan remain as separate items.
