IQE signing ceremony to confirm the first investment made by CCR City Deal
• improving industry engagement with education;
• improving destination data for better learner outcome;
• developing a regional employability plan; and
• developing succession planning for EU- funded programmes post-Brexit.
With these points in place, the aim of the new plan is that it will lead to a demand-led skills system driven by the needs of the industry, delivering employment and skills support. Both the investment with IQE plc and the new Employment and Skills Plan are important milestones for the CCR City Deal,
as they demonstrate the key role the programme has in the development of the region.
Building on the region’s sectoral strengths, its skills base, and three successful universities, the City Deal is providing a vehicle to create a regional way of working which has never been seen before in South-East Wales. The CCR Cabinet recognises the need for collaboration and joint working to make this happen. Therefore, five main bodies are responsible for delivering the City Deal and the broader vision for the region: • The CCR Cabinet itself • The Transport Authority • The Skills Partnership
• The Economic Growth Partnership • The Business Organisation
Two of the key business bodies are the Economic Growth Partnership (REGP) and the Business Organisation (BO). The REGP, which consists of the Chair
Frank Holmes and 12 members from both the private and public sector, plays an advisory role and works directly with the CCR. The body makes recommendations with regards to how the CCR City Deal is going to be implemented and advises on investment decisions. The REGP works closely with the BO chaired by Neil Brierley, which makes recommendations on issues relating to economic growth, drawing from their wide representation of private sector business in the region. Unlike the REGP, the BO does not directly advise the CCR Cabinet. Members of the BO are active members of the business community, and while there is an established body, the BO is always looking for additional support from successful business leaders, CEOs, directors or entrepreneurs from sectors that have the potential to drive or support the drive for economic growth in the region.
Councillor Morgan is the Chair of the Cardiff Capital Region Cabinet, and Leader of Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council.
