Agenda item

Members considered the Quarter Two Highlight Report on the Corporate Improvement Objective – Prosperity for All.

Members were asked to note that the team had delivered a significant piece of work in short timescales. The team had delivered on an Enterprise Zone which usually takes years but had been done in a matter of weeks.  Members asked for more information in relation to this and asked for a relevant representative to attend a future meeting. Officers stated that this is a Welsh Government initiative and an officer from Welsh Government would be invited to a meeting to explain in more depth.

Members asked whether the former fire station was still sustainable. Officers commented that New Sandfields Aberavon had submitted a business plan that had suggested it was sustainable and officers were aware that there may be some issues and they would be keeping a close eye on it.

Following scrutiny the report was noted.
