Councillor David Edgar, Cabinet Member for Resources, introduced the quarterly Contracts Forward Plan report. He asked Members to indicate if they wished to receive more information at Cabinet on any of the contracts before they proceeded to award.

There was a discussion during which the Youth Activity Hubs contract was identified as one where Members would like to receive an individual report.

The Mayor agreed to that proposal and adjusted the recommendations as required. He indicated that if Members wished for information on other contracts they should let him know.
