In agreeing its budget for 2019/20, the City of Edinburgh Council made “£200k available as transitional funding for organisations facing the greatest impacts following the loss of EIJB grant funding’.  The administration presented a report to Corporate Policy and Strategy Committee on 14 May 2019 which addressed mechanisms to identify how this funding can be best prioritised. The outcome of this meeting was to provide funding to the IJB to aid transitional support.
