No, I don't see why the TCP should exist at all. In effect it is just a single interest lobby group. I'd accept it as a trade association who dod lobby, properly, and through the correct channels. But not 'officially sponsored'. If you remember, there was a huge fuss in central Government a little while back - where a few MPs were critisised for working with such organisations - Ian Greer Associates (sic) and such like. Spot the similarity? |

I think the main thing about the TCP is to promote Newbury and get people to live and spend money in the town, witness the Halloween night that I think they sponsored - it was a success as I was there with all the family, so I guess more people in town out and about buying things and spending benefits business. A friend of mine said it reminded her of events that are regularly held in other countries. Thats why the pavilion is possibly going to be a draw for the public, you won't just go there you will go to other parts of the town too. Is this sounding a bit idealistic? |

I don't think so, although I do think that the pavilion is in the wrong place to get used enough. Promoting the town is one thing, but some people are against giving away public land to developers to exploit for commercial use. Open public land is only shrinking, they are not making any more. |

Now that the TCP has discovered its sense of civic duty in publishing these minutes, I look forward to the publication of previous minutes for the last 2 years.
Admin - now they're not secret any more, any chance you can arrange this for us?

Mmm.
Noticed this little line in the report from Standard Life....
Standard Life Investments are in the process of recruiting a Centre
Manager. This person will liaise with the TCP and they should be in post
at the start of 2011.
I don't suppose for one.......Nah. |

It'd be one for the fact files if it was. |
