The submitted Local Plan acknowledges that it does not meet housing need in full. Examination hearing sessions have yet to be timetabled.

Air quality and transport work is being undertaken, with Basildon Borough Council having written to the Planning Inspectorate Service to request a delay to the start of the examination on 28 June 2019. The Planning Inspectorate responded to Basildon Borough Council via email on 5 July 2019, indicating they are content with deferring the EiP to allow for additional works to be undertaken.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Prevention Concordat for Better Mental Health is underpinned by an understanding that taking a prevention-focused approach to improving the public’s mental health is shown to make a valuable contribution to achieving a fairer and more equitable society. The concordat promotes evidence-based planning and commissioning to increase the impact on reducing health inequalities. The sustainability and cost-effectiveness of this approach will be enhanced by the inclusion of action that impacts on the wider determinants of mental health and wellbeing. 2. RECOMMENDATIONS 1. That the HWB should consider the adoption of the Consensus Statement as detailed below 3. BACKGROUND The concordat is intended to provide a focus for cross-sector action to deliver a tangible increase in the adoption of public mental health approaches across: local authorities the NHS $odfwtjuu.doc Page 2 of 8 public, private and voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) sector organisations educational settings employers It acknowledges the active role played by people with lived experience of mental health problems, individually and through user-led organisations.

  • Announcing the South East Creative, Cultural and Digital Support Programme (SECCADS)
    Announcing the South East Creative, Cultural and Digital Support programme (SECCADS) 1 Why are we running the SECCADS Programme? “The Creative Industries are a success story, playing a key role in the UK’s economic recovery. They contributed £87.4bn in GVA in 2015, 5.3% of the UK economy (comparable to the Construction and Information sectors) and between 2010 and 2015 grew by 34% - faster than any other sector. They have also outperformed other sectors in terms of employment growth: between 2011 and 2016, employment in the sector increased by 25.4% (circa 400,000 jobs) compared to 7.6% average across the wider UK. The sector is a net exporter of services (£11.3bn surplus in 2015)” Independent Review of the Creative Industries, Sir Peter Bazalgette 2017 The South East Local Enterprise Partnership (SELEP) wishes to ensure that it supports and benefits from this growth sector. Aware that the Creative, Cultural and Digital Sector does not tend to access mainstream business support, SELEP has supported the South East Creative Economy Network to develop SECCADS. SECCADS is designed to specifically attract and meet the needs of the sector. What is SECCADS? SECCADS will be a two-year business support programme designed to support Creative, Cultural and Digital Businesses (2018 – 2020). There will be three categories of support on offer: • Cluster- it: support to encourage cluster development across the SELEP area and into key markets such as London • Design-it: support for business start-ups in the sector • Grow-it: support for business growth There will be: • Local Coordinators located in each of the three areas: Essex, Kent & Medway and East Sussex.
