(i)            That the progress being made to develop a climate partnership be noted;

(ii)          That the Council continue to explore with partners the creation of a Torbay Climate Partnership, building on the discussions at the meeting held on 4 June 2021; and

(iii)         That the Cabinet acknowledges the work already undertaken by the Overview and Scrutiny Climate Change Emergency Review Panel.  In light of their being no firm proposal arising from the informal meeting of partners on 4 June, the Cabinet requests that the Overview and Scrutiny Board consider acting as the facilitator for this activity until such a time that the climate partnership is in a position to lead.
