Notice of Motions Notice of the following motion has been given in accordance with the Committee Procedure Rules:- 1. Mr J. Childs The Economic Development Sub-Committee congratulates the tourist industry of Norfolk for its great fiscal input into our local economy but would like to ask officers to apply pressure to the relevant authorities that have shut public toilets and stopped funding for beach cleaning to reverse these decisions as it seems perverse that we successfully attract visitors to our lovely beach towns but do little to look after them while they are here? 8.

Apologies and Substitutions 1.1 Apologies were received from Mr S Clancy (Chairman) (Mr B Spratt substituting), Mr C Foulger (Mr M Wilby substituting) and Mr T Jermy. 1.2 Mr B Iles (Vice-Chairman) in the Chair. 2. Minutes 2.1 The minutes of the Sub-Committee meeting on 14 July 2016 were agreed as an accurate record and signed by the Chairman. 2.2 The minutes of the Special meeting held on 09 September 2016 were agreed as an accurate record and signed by the Chairman. 3. Declarations of Interest 3.1 No interests were declared. 4. Items of Urgent Business 4.1 There were no items of urgent business. 5. Local Member Issues / Questions 5.1 There were no local member issues or questions. 5 6. Public Question Time 6.1 No public questions were received. 7. Update from Outside Bodies and Member Working Groups 7.1 Mr Spratt gave an update to the Sub-Committee on the recent meeting of the County Farms Advisory Board: • The Advisory Board and Farmers hoped to improve communications between County Farms and Norfolk County Council, to support moving forward efficiently, for example with addressing farm repairs; • There had been a reasonable harvest this year; • It was felt that farm rents should be reviewed; • It was felt that County Farm property assets should be looked into more closely, for example the strong-holdings around Wisbech, Acle and Blofield. • Tenant farmers had reported they were supportive of the Advisory Board and were keen for the identified improvements to be made as quickly as possible. 8. Cambridge Norwich Tech Corridor 8.1 The Sub-Committee received the report introduced by the Economic Development Manager discussing the Cambridge Norwich Tech Corridor and the local authorities and LEPs (Local Enterprise Partnerships) that had come together in partnership to raise the profile of the Corridor and attract business investment. 8.2.1 During discussion the following points were noted: 8.2.2 The level of interest in Hethel Engineering Centre, one of the key assets along the Technology Corridor was queried; the Economic Development Manager confirmed that the Centre was performing well, with over 90% occupancy. Tenant companies tended to be more knowledge or technology based and therefore not as directly reliant on the dualling as other businesses. Instead, the Centre is seen as a key focus for attracting investment. 8.2.3 A Member highlighted a potential to the economy of Norfolk of linking to the Motorsport economy of Oxford and suggested that the announcement of road links to Oxford in the autumn statement should therefore be promoted. 8.3 The Sub-Committee APPROVED signing the Memorandum of Understanding and joining the Cambridge-Norwich Partnership. 9. Norfolk Library Information Service (NLIS) support to business 9.1.1 The Sub-Committee received the report discussing projects being looked into by the Business Library in partnership with the Economic Development and Strategy Group to develop its current services and provide more targeted support. 6 9.1.2 The Economic Development Manager reported that business support is an important service provided through the library. By working in partnership with the New Anglia Growth Hub, it has been possible to ensure added value to the Norfolk business support landscape and avoid duplication. 9.2 The Sub-Committee RESOLVED to AGREE to support the ongoing and additional work by the Business Library in partnership with the Economic Development Team. 10. Apprenticeships - update 10.1.1 The Sub-Committee received the report giving an update on progress against targets for the Apprenticeships Norfolk Network since 2013. 10.1.2 The Employment and Skills Manager reported that Norfolk lead the Eastern Region in uptake of apprenticeships. 10.1.3 The Apprenticeships Strategy Manager reported that despite the County’s strong performance it was important to highlight that the level of service was likely to be at risk from June 2017 following funding ending at the end of March 2017.
