To submit a report by the Treasurer.

Submitted – the report of the Treasurer in relation to the above.

It was reported that the purpose of the report was to consider the applications relevant to the Isle of Anglesey Charitable Trust.  Allocations are made annually from this Committee to the following categories of projects:-

Community and Sporting Facilities (small capital projects)

Other Grants (mainly one-off small grants)

At its meeting on 23 January, 2019, the full Trust resolved to delegate a budget of £125k to this Committee for the annual grants programme.  The full Trust also resolved in its meeting to delegate authority to the General Grants Committee to approve Small Grants applications and, therefore, the full Charitable Trust will only need to note the minutes of the General Grants Committee thereafter.  The grant limit in respect of Community and Sporting Facilities Grants is £8,000 and up to 70% of the eligible cost.  However, in its meeting on 21 April, 2011, the full Trust resolved to provide flexibility to this Committee to increase the upper limit and percentage rate of support in light of applications received.

The relevant Officers from within the Isle of Anglesey County Council have considered and prioritised the applications received, as far as possible and consistent with the Trust’s decisions and criteria established in previous years.  A joint referencing system has been employed for both grants put forward to this Committee and for grant applications to the Welsh Church Act Fund; any gaps in the reference numbers will be due to those grant having been put forward to the Welsh Church Act Fund rather than this Trust.

The applications are considered in accordance with the ‘Criteria for the Allocation of Grants from the Isle of Anglesey Charitable Trust’, a copy of which was attached as Appendix B to the report.
