Support will extend beyond the availability of free facilities to include the close guidance required to turn a germ of an idea into a fully functioning, profitable business which creates wealth and jobs for the Ayrshire economy. Guidance is likely to involve strategy development, business modelling, communications, networking, market sensing, leadership, accessing finance, product development and business growth. Places allocated within the space will be through an informal application and interview process. It is anticipated that between 20 and 30 spaces will be made available in the first intake, accommodating up to 50 people. It is expected that all three Ayrshire councils will support this project equally and this will equate to between 7 and 10 aspiring entrepreneurs from each area being accommodated. It is intended that operations costs will be met by the contributions of each Ayrshire council to the project and will include costs associated with mentors and advisors. Full details of project targets and budgets will be set out in a Service Level Agreement (SLA). Members asked questions, and received clarification, on the following:- � � � the mechanism for identifying prospective participants and any eligibility criteria in terms of age; the transport difficulties associated with the location of the proposed Hatchery; and any overlap with the work of the Arran Business Gateway, which is provided via the Highlands and Islands Partnership. The Executive agreed to support the Entrepreneurial Spark Business Hatchery Programme by providing a grant of £50,000 per year for a 3-year programme, subject to an annual performance review, to be met from existing budgets within Economic Development Services. 8. Recruitment and Selection Policy and Procedure Addendum - Prioritising Job Applicants for Selection Submitted report by the Chief Executive on an addendum to the Recruitment and Selection Policy, which aims to prioritise job applications in order to support the Council's Economic and Regeneration Strategy objectives, and to recoup the significant investment made in teacher training. The Council's Recruitment and Selection Policy, which sets out the framework for recruiting job applicants into the Council’s workforce, requires to be updated to reflect support for the Council's Economic and Regeneration Strategy 2010-20, by prioritising applications for job opportunities within the Council to people who are actively seeking work and who have no other means of financial support and those seeking career development opportunities. Page 6 12
The joint investment by the Scottish Government and Scottish Councils, including North Ayrshire, to establish and sustain a pool of newly qualified teachers in support of workforce succession planning is not currently reflected in the Council's Recruitment and Selection Policy. Prioritisation of vacant posts to newly qualified teachers and those in employment actively seeking career development, will provide the return in investment in their training, development and registration as well as contributing to the worklessness objective of the Council's Economic and Regeneration Strategy. A proposed addendum to the Recruitment and Selection Policy and Procedure was attached as Appendix 1 to the report. The Executive agreed to fully endorse and support the introduction of the addendum to the Recruitment and Selection Policy and Procedure, as set out in Appendix 1 to the report. 9. Change Programme 9.1 Change Programme: Progress as at 29 February 2012 Submitted report by the Chief Executive on an update in relation to the Change Programme. The Change Programme seeks to effect Council-wide transformational change to address unavoidable demographic and financial pressures. This mirrors the national public service reform programme established by the Scottish Government. The report provided an update on progress as at 29 February 2012 in respect of the following key areas:- � � � � � � � � National policy developments, including proposed participation as a Pathfinder in the Local Scrutiny and Engagement Implementation Network, as part of the Police and Fire & Rescue Services reform; The Social Services and Health change programme, which is the subject of a separate report to the Executive; The Education and Skills work streams in respect of the Effective Use of the Education and Skills Estate, Cluster Working and Budget Devolution, the Review of Early Years Provision and the Review of Senior Phase and Post 16 Education; Altering Service Demand learning events; Transport, including the potential benefits of having a centralised transport hub; The six themed Asset Management Plans and action plans, and the Corporate Landlord approach; The two Supporting Services work streams, namely Efficiency reviews and Benchmarking; and The development of a revised Customer Services Strategy.
