Report by Community Development Officer

Members considered a report detailing recommendations for the award of a Third Sector Grant for the Bute Agricultural Society.  It was noted that this item had been carried forward from the April Area Committee and at the Members request a profit and loss statement was produced for the 2013/14 year showing a loss. 

Discussion regarding the economics of running a show of this nature, with Members noting the relatively small grant request in comparison to the actual cost of running the annual show. 

Decision:

1. Members agreed to note the report; and
2. Agreed that the recommendation of £650 underwrite be awarded to the Bute Agricultural Show.
