The Corporate Portfolio Holder presented the report to Members.

He advised Members that the report was asking for authority to be delegated to the Chief Executive and Section 151 Officer in consultation with himself, to enter or withdraw from the business rates pooling rather than continuing to bring a report to Cabinet.

It was moved by Councillor N J Rushton, seconded by Councillor T J Pendleton and

RESOLVED THAT:

Cabinet delegates authority to the Chief Executive and Section 151 Officer, in conjunction with the Corporate Portfolio Holder, to enter and withdraw from future business rates pooling agreements and negotiate their terms.

Reason for decision: To improve the efficiency of business decisions.
