Issue - meetings

To consider a report of the Deputy Chief Executive.

The purpose of this report is to seek views on proposed priority areas for the Safer Stockport Partnership (SSP) to focus on in a new SSP Plan. Given the cross-cutting nature of the Partnership’s work, this report is being considered by all Scrutiny Committees.

The Scrutiny Committee is recommended to:

·           Note the developing Stockport and Greater Manchester Community Safety Plans, underpinned by completed strategic assessments, and timetables for further engagement and consultation going forward;

·           Consider the proposed priority areas for action in the new SSP Plan set out at paragraph 4.3 of the report.

The Cabinet Member (Economy & Regeneration) submitted a report (copies of which had been circulated) inviting members to comment on the proposed priority areas for the Safer Stockport Partnership to focus on as part of the Safer Stockport Partnership Plan.

The following comments were made issues raised:-

·         Councillors asked that District Centres be given consideration as part of the plan noting that a lot of work was undertaken in the Town Centres.

·         In order to ensure that people can best enjoy the evening economy in District Centres – they should be given high priority.

RESOLVED – That the report be noted.
