Issue - meetings

Discussion took place around the accuracy of the Minutes from the meeting of the Area Committee held on 5 October 2016, with specific reference to Item 13 – Campbeltown Options for Surplus CHORD funds.

The Chair advised that in his view the minute was not inaccurate, but reflected the decision made on the day which was to approve the recommendations in the report.  He noted that prior to the meeting in October; submissions were received from 3 local organisations who were asking for their projects to be considered as being eligible for a share of the surplus funds.  Councillor Colville also noted that it had become clear since the meeting that the understanding of the Committee was that the decision taken would still have allowed these projects to be given further consideration.

Following further discussion, the Minute of the Mid Argyll, Kintyre and the Islands Area Committee meeting, held on 5 October 2016 was approved as a true record.
