Following its meeting in late November 2010, the EM IEP Board have agreed that regional improvement and efficiency work should continue. The Board agreed that a small team located with East Midlands Councils will continue to progress the work of EM IEP using a small budget created from regional and sub regional under spending. The areas of business to continue are: improvement, efficiency, productivity, climate change and procurement. This is very positive news for authorities in the region and means that we can all continue to meet the challenges of government cuts head-on.
