1. That the draft
Commercialisation Strategy, attached at Appendix A to the report of
the Head of Commercial and Economic Development, be adopted subject
to the following amendments:
·
At paragraph 2 of the Strategy, amend the final
section to read:
This is a fundamental shift in approach and
consequently a simple, easily understood Commercialisation Strategy
is required to give direction; and which links into the Medium Term
Financial Strategy. All projects and
activities undertaken under the Commercialisation Strategy will
therefore be evaluated against the priorities of the Medium Term
Financial Strategy at paragraph 2.5 of that Strategy.
·
At paragraph 4.3 of the Strategy, the
‘Commercial Projects Development Team’, add a new
bullet point to read, as the first and primary function:
To look for trading projects that prioritise capture
of commercial opportunities afforded by our existing statutory and
non-statutory services, so that synergy exists between our
commercial and other desired outcomes.
2. That the
decision to implement a project will be made by the full
Cabinet.
