evildrneil Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Yorkshire Forward is one of nine regional development agencies being replaced. It may be that the new setup will be more effecient as there are claims that over 50% of Yorkshire Forward's expenditure has been internal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brett1uk Posted October 11, 2010 Author Share Posted October 11, 2010 Not good then, also it looks like it old news, it also looks like these agencies are going to be replaced? this is surely all going to cost extra money to set up, am i being blind here, surely this doesnt make sense to be setting up new bodies at massive expence when there are already ones set in place. Why not just tweek the ones that are already in place?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evildrneil Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Having not seen the white papers or anything this is just off the top of my head but I would hope that the RDAs are going to be replaced with something more localand responsive as Yorkshire Foreward did kinda pick up the monicker of Leeds Forward...
