As DTCCA we have greater local control over decisions which impact our businesses and residents, including the transfer of new and existing Government funding to the CCA to help tackle key local priorities. We have the flexibility to secure private and public sector funding as appropriate.
The Devon and Torbay Local Growth Plan is key to driving our economic ambitions. It was developed alongside our advisory groups and key stakeholders from across the region. It represents the needs and ambitions of our present and future economy.
Our Local Growth Plan highlights five key growth priorities which include:
- Thriving places
- Maximising assets for sustainable growth
- Thriving bedrock sectors
- Supporting our entrepreneurial, networked region
- Building the skills and talent pipeline
The Plan aligns with emerging local and regional strategies, and serves as a tool to strengthen economic partnerships, delivery capacity and the case for devolved powers, funding and investment.
