01/12/2017 - Appointment to Outside Bodies - Derbyshire Destination Management Partnership ref: 516 Recommendations Approved
Decision Maker: National Park Authority
Made at meeting: 01/12/2017 - National Park Authority
Decision published: 18/12/2017
Effective from: 01/12/2017
Decision:
Members considered a report on changes to the governance structure of the Peak District and Derbyshire Destination Management Partnership Board, to which the Authority appointed both a Member and an officer representatives to as an outside body at the July 2017 AGM. The report sought approval for the future proposed member representation within the new governance structure.
Some Members were concerned that the proposed changes to the body were too complicated and unnecessary, and what the impact would be on smaller businesses.
In response to Members’ queries the Director of Commercial Development and Outreach stated that the body was an independent organisation with representatives from both the public and private sectors. The Authority paid an annual amount to the body, currently £12,000, but that this was reviewed each year. He confirmed that Cllr Judith Twigg had stated that she still wished to be the Authority’s Member representative on the newly arranged body.
It was proposed to add an extra recommendation to the report to request that a letter be sent to the body, in consultation with the Chair of the Authority, expressing the Members’ concerns with the new governance arrangement. This was moved and seconded. Cllr Mrs J A Twigg and Mr C Furness were moved and seconded as the Member representative and Deputy representative.
The recommendation as amended was then voted on and carried.
RESOLVED:
1. To note the changes to the governance structure of Marketing Peak
District and Derbyshire (MPD&D).
2. To appoint Cllr J A Twigg as the Member representative and Cllr C Furness as the Deputy Member representative to the MPD&D Local Authority
Investor Group and confirm that attendance at meetings of the Group is an approved duty for the purposes of claims for travel and subsistence.
3. That the Director of Commercial Development and Outreach sends a letter, in consultation with the Chair of the Authority, to Marketing Peak District and Derbyshire expressing Members’ concerns regarding the new governance arrangement.
