MSG Extension Report (IO80425)
20/06/2018 - MSG Extension Report
The report was urgent due to the extension considerations for Mainstream Grants and the decisions required in relation to the extension.
David Freeman (Voluntary and Community Sector (VCS) Strategy Manager presented the report, circulated in a supplementary agenda, proposing a further extension of the current MSG programme to 30th September 2019 to allow further time for co-production with the VCS of the Community Commissioning funding programme which will succeed MSG.
The Mayor invited the Chair of GSSC to comment on the report and he indicated that whilst mindful that the MSG had been extended on one previous occasion, they considered it justifiable to grant this extension and endorsed the proposal.
The Sub – Committee agreed that recommendation 3 in the report (regarding the recommendations for individual projects not to be extended) be considered as part of the discussion on item 7.7,MSG Quarterly Monitoring Update 2018-19 and Rent.
