Motions on Notice

The following Motion has been submitted by Councillor Robertson:

 

“This Council asks Scrutiny and Cabinet members to look into the possibility of developing a local procurement policy to support Small and Medium Enterprises based within the District Council’s boundary.

The current Economic Development Strategy and the Strategic Plan both have references to supporting local businesses and related matters.  However, they do not include the direct help the Council could be to the district economy if it had a local procurement policy and we call upon the Council to investigate the merits of such a policy for our local businesses in Lichfield District.”
