The Council made the following recommendation to the Mayor:

It was proposed by Councillor Mills and seconded by Councillor Pritchard:

that the Mayor be recommended to approve the changes to the legal arrangements around the ownership of Careers South West (as set out in paragraph 4.6 to 4.9 of this report) to enable the company to operate more commercially and autonomously on a day to day basis, whilst Cornwall, Devon County, Plymouth City and Torbay Councils continue to retain ownership and authority over the business.

On being put to the vote, the motion was declared carried (unanimous).

The Mayor considered the recommendation of the Council, as set out above, at the meeting and a record of his decision, together with further information, is attached to these Minutes.
