EVENT SUPPORT PROGRAMME 2017 - 2018 pdf icon PDF 170 KB

Minutes:

The Executive Board Member considered a report seeking approval for £20,000.00 funding for the launch of an Event Support Fund Scheme aimed at providing financial assistance to events in the county that could demonstrate that they met certain criteria, namely the Tourism, Community and Economic strategic aims. It was anticipated that there would be great demand for what would be a relatively small fund therefore support would only be given to those events which showed clearly evidenced economic outputs.

 

RESOLVED to approve funding of £20,000.00 for the launch of an Event Support Fund Scheme.

DEFINED IN PARAGRAPH 14 OF PART 4 OF SCHEDULE 12A

TO THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT ACT, 1972 AS AMENDED BY

THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT (ACCESS TO INFORMATION)

(VARIATION) (WALES) ORDER 2007.

CARMARTHENSHIRE RURAL ENTERPRISE FUND - LEWIS RETAIL DREFACH LTD

Minutes:

Following the application of the public interest test it was RESOLVED pursuant to the Act referred to in minute no. 4 above not to publicise the content of the report as it contained exempt information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the Authority holding that information) (Paragraph 14 of Part 4 of Schedule 12A to the Act).

The public interest test in this matter related to the fact that the report contained detailed information about the business and financial affairs and ambitions of the applicants. In this case, the public interest in transparency and accountability is outweighed by the public interest in maintaining confidentiality, as disclosure of this information would be likely to damage the applicants at this stage.

The Executive Board Member considered an application from Lewis Retail Drefach Ltd. for assistance from the Carmarthenshire Rural Enterprise Fund towards the costs of demolishing Woodlands Garage, Drefach and constructing a retail premises, storage and office.

RESOLVED that the following application for a grant from the Carmarthenshire Rural Enterprise Fund be approved subject to the usual terms and conditions and those specified in the report:-

Applicant / Property                                                                      Award

Lewis Retail Drefach Ltd./former Woodlands Garage     £128,000.00
