Welcome and Apologies The Chair welcomed everyone to the GV Locality Partnership meeting. 2. Action Note The action note from the meeting held on 11 September 2017 was discussed with the following points raised:- Trends Data At the last meeting, the GVLP had requested a more detailed analysis of unemployment figures by age and gender and a geographical breakdown of users of the Employability Hub. A report, prepared by Steve Morley, Policy and Research Analyst, had been circulated as part of the agenda papers. Page4 1 of 6 Action Note The Partnership discussed the range of information provided and considered that it would be of benefit for the officer to attend the next meeting to provide further in-depth information. The Partnership agreed to invite Steve Morley, Policy and Research Analyst to the next meeting. John Stagecoach McKnight/ Steve Morley John McKnight reported that he has not had a response from Stagecoach and this action should be remitted to the Working Group to engage with Stagecoach J. McKnight/ Working Community Representative Position Group A recent contested election was held in Beith and a new Community Council established. James Waite, Beith Community Council was in attendance, in the absence of the Chair. The Chair outlined the selection process for the current community representative vacancy. Grants It was noted that the process and timescale for processing grant applications is now on the website. Meeting Venue Members commented on the volume of emails relating to meeting dates for 2018; that some dates clashed with Community Council meetings and Elected Member’s surgeries. It was agreed that the CPP Team would be advised of the issues and asked to resolve these. J. McKnight/ Community Learning and Development Strategic Plan M. Rae The Partnership was advised that further information on the Strategic Plan would be circulated before the next Partnership meeting. J. McKnight 3. Locality Co-ordinator Introduction and Update Christina Pieraccini, Community Education Worker, outlined her role and circulated a progress report on the work that has been done so far, the identification of the three priorities for the Garnock Valley and the establishment of Working Groups to take ownership of Action Plans for these priorities. The Partnership agreed that Rick be invited to provide an update to the next C. Pieraccini meeting. Page5 2 of 6 Action Note 4. Draft Locality Plan Progress A draft Action Plan was circulated which listed the three priorities, highlighted links with the Health and Social Care priorities, what was already happening, potential improvement projects, partners, timescales and funding opportunities. The Chair advised that the Kilwinning Locality Partnership had an elected Member on each of their three working groups and suggested that this may be worthwhile replicating. The Working Groups will prioritise projects, there will be participation by expertise from the wider community into these groups. Dr. MacKay noted that engagement across HSCP and CPP Locality Planning is being considered to avoid confusion or duplication. It was considered that there was a need for some form of Communication Plan to accompany the GV Action Plan. It was agreed that Partners read through the Action Plan and feedback on All Partners/ the themes they would be interested in. Christina will gather this information C. Pieraccini and arrange dates for the Working Groups to meet. 5.

Priority overlaps will occur across the Working Groups, who will meet collectively from time to time to share information.
