Prosperity Advisory Panel
A local partnership group has also been established to provide advice on strategic fit and deliverability of projects considered for funding. This local partnership group is known as the CIoS Prosperity Advisory Panel.
This group includes representatives from a wide range of local organisations, including businesses, investors, partnership boards, education and skills providers, community and faith organisations, voluntary and social enterprise bodies, and environmental, public health, and police and crime representatives.
The purpose of the Prosperity Advisory Panel is to provide local insight and expertise on economic development issues to maximise benefits for Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. The Panel helps to identify and address both need and opportunity for the Shared Prosperity Fund, including deliverability within in-year spending targets, and advice on wider economic policy. The Panel also provide oversight of programme performance and output, as well as advising the CIoS EPB on any unforeseen shocks to the economy and potential responses.
Further information on the Panel can be found in the Terms of Reference.
