The Council has been asked to confirm the
medium term commitment to financially contribute to the Newcastles
of the World Alliance paid Secretariat. The Economic Development
and Enterprise Overview and Scrutiny Committee considered the
benefits of membership in light of the Council’s broad
financial position. Scrutiny recommended that the Council withdraws
from the Alliance to enable resources to be directed to activities
which deliver priority local economic development
outcomes.
