Issue - meetings

RESOLVED that:-

(1)          a Youth Network be launched between Teignbridge District Council (members and officers) and youth groups; and

(2)          a report be taken through the existing Council meeting cycle twice a     year to update Members on progress and issues to date.

The Portfolio Holder for Communities and IT presented the report to outline options for developing a formal process to consult with and develop channels for engagement with young people. This would include developing a network though schools and in the community which would also ensure engagement with young people who were hard to reach. It was important that there was a structure in place and updates would be brought back to Members through the Committee process.

Members welcomed the way forward.

The Leader proposed the recommendation, this was seconded by the Portfolio Holder for Communities & IT.
