Technical Group

£3million of the Local Authority’s Working Neighbourhoods Fund (WNF) for the period 2008-11 has been allocated to Bolsover Partnership to identify measures and commission activities that aim to prevent the need for individuals to be in receipt of benefits or become unemployed.

Bolsover Partnership set up a Technical Group comprising members from across the Partnership to make technical decisions about the commissioning and approval of initiatives.  The Group reports directly to the Executive Board for ratification.

The Technical Group has three main functions:

• to provide advice on commissioning activities in order to meet the priorities of Bolsover Partnership
  
• to make technical decisions for the approval process in relation to commissioned activity and recommend projects for WNF funding
• to monitor proposed expenditure and recommend action as appropriate
  

More information about the Technical Group can be found in its Terms of Reference.
