Decision details

That the Executive’s response to the findings and recommendations of the Overview and Scrutiny Task Group following its inquiry into the Chorley Local Strategic Partnership be approved for submission to the Overview and Scrutiny Committee.

The Committee noted the Executive's response to the Overview and Scrutiny Inquiry into the Chorley Local Strategic Partnership.

Members were invited to make any requests for further information in relation to the Local Strategic Partnership to Lesley-Ann Fenton (lesley-ann.fenton@chorley.gov.uk). 

Of the nine LSP projects funded for 2009/10, two were funding diversionary activity for young people at risk of alcohol abuse or Anti Social Behaviour and seeking to raise the self-esteem and aspirations of these young people. 

The Safer Chorley and South Ribble Partnership had formally supported progress to be made on the establishment of a Designated Public Place Order for the Town Centre, Chorley and Astley Park.  A report would be presented to Executive Cabinet which would outline the process and seek approval to go forward. 

RESOLVED -

1.             Further information be forwarded to the ward Councillors for Chorley North East and Chorley North West regarding a potential hotspot for alcohol misuse.

2.             The report be welcomed and noted.

7.50 Councillor Rosie Russell left the meeting.
