Who does the CLB engage with and report to?
At present the cultural policy area sits within the remit of the WMCA’s Economy and Strategy Directorate. This policy team also supports the administration of the Cultural Leadership Board.
As an advisory board, the Cultural Leadership Board reports to the WMCA Portfolio Holder for Digital & Culture. He in turn reports to the WMCA Economic Growth Board (EGB), which then reports back to the main WMCA Board:
- Cultural Leadership Board
- WMCA Portfolio Holder for Digital & Culture
- WMCA Economic Growth Board
- Main WMCA Board
The CLB works closely together with other relevant bodies such as the WMCA Culture Officers Group, which has representation from Local Authorities and the Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEP’s).
