A report by the Director of Regeneration, Housing and Planning advised the Cabinet that Invest Wirral delivered a range of business support services that help businesses set up, grow and maintain competitiveness.  A Cabinet report in June 2011 had set out proposals to expand these services further in order to respond to the needs of Wirral businesses and, therefore, to stimulate economic growth and create new jobs for the residents of Wirral.

The report provided an update on how these services had developed and outlined some recommendations to ensure the new business support services provided the best possible value for money.

RESOLVED:

That the changes to the Investment Support Services Framework based on the information set out in the report be agreed.

Councillor J Green left the meeting.

Councillor L Rennie in the Chair.
