Report of the Head of Community Engagement

(Cabinet Member with Special Responsibility Councillor Sands)

Cabinet was due to consider a report from the Head of Community Engagement to update members on the review of the Museums Partnership agreement with Lancashire County Council and agree future management responsibilities. In light of further information being required the Leader advised the meeting that she would be proposing that consideration of this item be deferred to a later meeting.

Councillor Blamire proposed, seconded by Councillor Sands:

“(1)      That consideration of the Museums Service report be deferred to a later meeting.”

Councillors then voted:-

Resolved unanimously:

(1)        That consideration of the Museums Service report be deferred to a later meeting.

Officers responsible for effecting the decision:

Chief Executive

Head of Community Engagement

Reasons for making the decision:

Management of the Museums is an important element of the Council’s priorities of Economic Regeneration – and is cited within the Corporate Plan ‘An improved future for the district’s museums is secured’.  The decision to defer this item will enable Cabinet to consider further the options available when the report is re-submitted.
