Today was our last full Common Council meeting before the summer recess. I was delighted to be a named supporter of Edward Lords's motion to fly the rainbow flag, and show how supportive today's city is to tolerance and inclusivity for those in the LGBT communities.
It was also a lively meeting thanks to questions about our investment to support employability versus other activity. I was delighted to hear the Chairman of Finance report we spent over £2million in 2016 supporting employment initiatives. All in all a very strong end before the summer recess!
