The Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) has revealed the make-up of its first board.
At a press call held this lunchtime, LEP chairman Chris Pomfret introduced a ten-person board, equally made up from the public and private sectors.
The board includes: Anne Carlisle (University College Falmouth), Lord Teverson, Chris Ridgers (Cornwall Council economy portfolio holder), Philip Hygate (Council of the Isles of Scilly), Alec Robertson (leader of Cornwall Council), Gaynor Coley (Eden Project), Chris Loughlin (South West Water), Richard Reed (ex-Fugro Seacore), Simon Tregoning (Classic Cottages), and Joe Keohane (formerly of Sharp’s Brewery, now director of Browne’s Chocolate in Okehampton).
Given the threats and deceit that had to happen for it to get this far, I’m saddened that any of them were prepared to have their names associated with the LEP. The whole thing has been a disgrace to Cornwall and leaves a very nasty taste in the mouth.
Good to finally find out who is on the board! very interesting.
