The meeting reviewed the Terms of Reference and noted that the chair is appointed for 5
years and that Mark Jeffries’ term would be ending in April 2022.
JW asked whether, given the current organisational uncertainty and future changes, MJ
would be willing to remain as Chair for a further year. MJ confirmed that he would be
willing to do so and the meeting agreed that this would be beneficial.
ACTION: The proposal will be submitted to the LEP board to extend MJ’s tenure as chair
for one further year.
The Committee agreed
• To accept the Terms of the Reference
• To recommend to the board that MJ’s term as chair be extended by one year
