In order
to meet its objectives the East Border
Region Committee has adopted a thematic
approach to cross border economic development.
As a result six thematic groups comprising
relevant councillors and officials from
the eight member councils have been formed,
which report to the Board of the East
Border Region.
By adopting
this thematic approach the East Border
Region will ensure that the key strategic
issues across all sectors within the Region
are being dealt with in a structured,
managed and co-ordinated manner. While
these groups have a role in investigating
potential funding opportunities, their
primary focus is strategic, encouraging
a competitive, sustainable, integrated,
outward looking and inclusive region.
