RESOLVED:

opportunities for the region, in cooperation with the respective
growth boards of the three upper tiers, fully considering the
enhanced strategic powers, capability and perspective of the
MCCA.

     That the Board
supports the proposed 2025/26 work programme priorities outlined in

region lens: Environment and climate change, Economic development
and regeneration, and Transport and infrastructure.

     That the Board
acknowledges that we are entering a transition period, with
significant changes expected within a short timeframe, meaning that
there needs to be some fluidity and adaptability within the work
plan.
