The Committee were requested to consider setting aside a sum of money to assist the Trust. Members raised some concerns about approving additional funding without a report and full details. The Trust would be asked to present a report to a future meeting.
RESOLVED :
That £33,000 be set aside for St George's Theatre Trust to be drawn down as and when required before considering a detailed report on the future business strategy at the Policy and resources Committee in November.
