The Chief Executive, Mrs H Briggs, had previously notified the Chairman of an item of urgent business.

Mrs Briggs reminded Cabinet that they had approved the project to bid for One Public Estate Funding in April 2017 and that subsequently Rutland had been awarded £170K of funding.  The grant funding was not ring-fenced as such, but was very strictly regulated and must be allocated to the St George’s Barracks Projects.  Mrs Briggs had been required to accept the grant conditions on behalf of the authority in order to claim the £170K grant funding and was looking for Cabinet to endorse the acceptance of those conditions.

DECISION

Cabinet ENDORSED the acceptance of the conditions for the One Public Estate Grant Funding by the Chief Executive in order for the funding to be released.
