Report by Director of Community Services

A report advising of Argyll College’s proposal to merge with Lochaber and Skye & Wester Ross Colleges with a view to becoming what the Scottish Funding Council refers to as a “fundable body” was considered.

Decision

1.      To note the terms of the report and in particular the arrangements that will be necessary for future nominations to the Board in order to permit the new College to attain fundable status; and

2.      To note the resignation of Wilma Campbell as Chair of Argyll College Board and to request the Chair to write to Wilma Campbell, on behalf of Members, thanking her for all her work and support to Argyll College over the years.
