Report by Head of Transport (TDC20)

The Committee considered (TDC20) funding for a further year to support the employment of three externally based posts at Oxfordshire Rural Community Council.

Mr Timberlake advised that the City Council had now indicated support of £5,000.  With regard to the ddelegated fund to cover the costs of training for drivers of community transport services he advbised that only £3,500 of that provision would beused and therefore there would be a saving of £4,500.

RESOLVED:

(a)               to confirm funding of the external transport posts in the amount of £86,290 for the financial year 2010/11, subject to the continuation of appropriate levels of funding from district councils; and

(b)               to pay a grant for this provision to ORCC to provide these posts for 2010/11 and to review continuation of this grant funding towards the end of that period.
