DISCUSSION Members were reminded that the date set for the transfer of the functions of the North Wales Economic Ambition Board and the Growth Deal to the North Wales Corporate Joint Committee was 1 April 2025. It was confirmed that the procedures of all relevant Local Authorities had approved the transfer stating that the Report detailed the steps that needed to be taken in order to finalise in a timely manner. It was explained that the Joint Committee would receive agreement imminently from the Growth Deal partners for this transfer. It was noted that there had been a delay in the arrangements for receiving agreement from the Welsh Government to relieve Cyngor Gwynedd of its responsibilities and the Growth Deal funding agreement allowing the North Wales Corporate Joint Committee to take responsibility for it from 1 April 2025. It was emphasised that this agreement was crucial for the transfer. It was explained that a draft agreement had been sent to the Welsh Government in February 2025. Gratitude was expressed that the Welsh Government had confirmed on 21 March 2025, following lengthy discussions, that this agreement was acceptable for finalising the transfer. It was advised that the Joint Committee could approve the transfer, subject to the Welsh Government's commitment that officers would receive an agreement to be signed by 25 March 2025, to ensure that the proposed timetable was adhered to. It was highlighted that the decisions set out within the Report referred to the winding up of the functions of the North Wales Economic Ambition Board on 31 March 2025. It was also noted that the North Wales Corporate Joint Committee would take on those functions from 1 April 2025. All officers were thanked for their work in striving to ensure that everything was in place for this transition in a timely manner, and Welsh Government was also thanked for its co-operation on the matter.
RESOLVED 1. To approve the appointment of the representatives from each partner organisation as co-opted (non-voting) Members of the Economic Well-being Sub-committee. 2. To confirm the membership of the Well-being Sub-committee as set out in the following table: DISCUSSION The Report was presented stating that it confirmed the membership of the Economic Well-being Sub-Committee of the North Wales Corporate Joint Committee. It was noted that the establishment of this Sub-Committee was key to supporting the transfer of the Growth Deal to the Joint Committee and taking control of the functions of the North Wales Economic Ambition Board. The Wrexham University membership was corrected to state that Mr Moss Garde was the substitute in the Co-option Agreement. It was pointed out that every effort was being made to establish this Sub-Committee to be of the same nature as the Economic Ambition Board and therefore it was confirmed that all Co-opted Members were non-voting Members. It was highlighted that the Co-opted Members identified within the report were already members of the Economic Ambition Board as advisors. It was explained that a further Report would be submitted to the Corporate Joint Committee at its next meeting, in order to share information on co-option matters including voting rights, for clarity.
RESOLVED: 1. To approve the Terms of Reference and appointment process for the establishment of a new Business Advisory Board following transfer of the Growth Deal and to delegate the implementation process to the Interim Chief Executive. 2.

To delegate to the Interim Chief Executive, in consultation with the Monitoring Officer, the Chair and Vice Chair the authority to make any minor amendments to the Terms of Reference and role descriptions in response to any feedback received from Welsh and UK Governments prior to implementation. DISCUSSION The Terms of Reference of a new private sector advisory body (Advisory Business Board) were presented as well as role descriptions for two new Non-Executive Advisors. It was explained that developing these would ensure that the procedures of the North Wales Corporate Joint Committee met what was expected in order to implement the Growth Deal. It was added that presenting these was also in response to the Welsh and UK Governments' recommendations regarding appointing non-executive advisors. It was confirmed that officers had received legal advice on the model for the appointment of non-executive advisors and it was noted that the Corporate Joint Committee arrangements were based on local government legal requirements for individuals who were in a role and receiving payment for services. The employment package of the non-executive advisors was considered and it was asked if consideration had been given to a daily fee for their services. In response, the Interim Chief Executive confirmed that work had been carried out in order to establish a daily pay scale for the nature of the appropriate advisory service. It was explained that there was a wide range of advisory employment arrangements and that they were very diverse. It was confirmed that salaries for daily advisory services would be determined as the Joint Committee succeeded in refining the type of advisory service required. In response to considerations that the non-executive advisors would be required to have Welsh language skills in order to be appointed, the Interim Chief Executive confirmed that the Welsh language was vital to the work of the Joint Committee and confirmed that every effort would be made to try to find advisors who were Welsh-speaking in order to assist the work of the Joint Committee. However, it was noted that consideration would be given to any application in order to determine whether the right level of advice would be provided to the Advisory Business Board in order to inform decisions of value to the region. It was confirmed that these roles would be advertised to indicate that Welsh language skills would be desirable but not necessary.

Gratitude was expressed for the regional and expert cooperation to ensure that the documentation was revised to be current in line with the legal requirements.

RESOLVED to exclude the press and public from the meeting during the discussion of Item 10 as it is likely that exempt information will be disclosed as defined in Paragraph 14 of Annex 12A of the Local Government Act 1972 - Information regarding the financial or business transactions of any particular person (including the authority holding such information). There is an acknowledged public benefit in being open about the use of public resources and related financial issues. It is also acknowledged that there are occasions, in order to protect the financial and commercial interests that matters related to such information need to be discussed without being publicised. The report is specific about agreeing appointment arrangements including job details and conditions and terms of pay that will be subject to a competitive recruitment process. I also note that the agreed information will be published as part of an open appointment process. Prematurely publishing this draft information can undermine the recruitment process. This would be contrary to the wider public interest of securing the best composite output. For these reasons, I am satisfied that the matter was closed despite the public interest.

Councillors must say when they have a personal link to something being discussed, such as a job, a property or a family member. A prejudicial interest is one strong enough that the councillor usually leaves the room and takes no part.
