Considerations
The Committee received a report from the Arts and Event Manager regarding the Cambridge City Council Arts Plan
Delivery Framework.
The Committee made the following comments in response to the report:
i.
A briefing note would be helpful to clarify the
functions of the various partnership bodies.
ii.
Questioned how a multi partner approach would be
monitored.
iii.
Asked how Mental Health was being prioritised.
iv.
Welcomed the links to the anti-poverty strategy.
In response to Members’ questions the Arts and Event Manager said the following:
i.
The listed partnerships were an efficient use of
officer time. Several are convened by other partners and they provide an
effective way of engaging with multiple organisations at one time.
ii.
External partners were encouraged to share skills
and to take on responsibility for project delivery.
iii.
Mental Health would be an important priority for
the well- being partnership and external City based experts would be invited to
contribute.

Manager undertook to circulate details of membership of partnerships and, where
relevant, minutes of meetings.
The Committee resolved by 5 votes to 0 to endorse the recommendations.
The Executive Councillor approved the recommendations.
