Three Gwent councils closer digital working partnership
Blaenau Gwent, Monmouthshire and Torfaen councils are already partners, with Newport, in the Shared Resource Service (SRS) which has supplied their technology services since 2011. Now Blaenau Gwent and Torfaen, which have already appointed a joint chief executive, and Monmouthshire will expand SRS's operations to include their digital, data and technology services. At present Newport isn't intending to join the full collaboration. A combined service is intended to be more efficient and produce savings for all three councils while data gathered will give a more' comprehensive and nuanced' understanding of communities, groups of people and individuals. It's intended regional data can highlight disparities in health outcomes, educational attainment, and economic opportunities across the council areas and lead to targeted action being taken more timely and 'effective decisions which should lead to better outcomes for individuals,' according to a report presented to Monmouthshire council's cabinet. It said working together will mean the service can work at scale and will be able to attract and retain highly skilled staff the individual councils would be unable to afford. Torfaen and Blaenau Gwent will each transfer one member of staff when the service gets up and running, either later this year or early in 2026, but as Monmouthshire is unable to spare a staff member, without their loss stopping 'core functions', it will create and fund a new data post at a total cost, covering salary and other committments, of £52,744. Monmouthshire's Labour led cabinet has agreed the £77,017 increase in expenditure for the first year of the partnership will be funded from its technology reserve and from the second year in 2026/27 the additional costs will either have to be found as a new commitment in its budget or potentially from departmental savings if they are achieved by the collaboration. It is intended the council's digital staff will transfer to the SRS, with their terms and conditions protected and subject to consultation with staff and trade unions, no later than April 1, 2026. The combined salary cost for those transferring, coupled with Monmouthshire share of joint management costs, would be £370,273 over a full year which is higher than the current digital team budget of £346,000 meaning it will have to find the additional contribution of £24,273. Further collaboration could be considered in future but as Monmouthshire's Geographic Information Systems team, that manages its address and street databases, is presently part of a shared arrangement with Newport further work will need to be completed on where that team is based.

A Brand Scotland overseas trade missions initiative was signed on Friday by the Scotland Office and Scottish Chambers of Commerce (SCC) in a partnership agreement. This collaboration will be supported by UK Government funding of up to £100,000 for 2025/26 which will help to promote Scottish trade and is aimed at attracting foreign direct investment into Scotland. Brand Scotland is part of the UK Government's Plan for Change boosting economic growth by promoting Scottish products and services while attracting international inward investment. The initiative will include a series of trade missions all designed to showcase Scottish businesses across the globe. Ian Murray and Liz Cameron signed the agreement at the UK Government's Queen Elizabeth HQ in Edinburgh. Scottish Secretary Ian Murray said: 'This agreement will help give Scotland a global platform to sell everything our brilliant country has to offer – from whisky and seafood to our world class services. 'The trio of trade deals secured by the Prime Minister in recent weeks is a huge opportunity for Scotland's economy – with the most populous country in the world, the richest country in the world and our most important market. This partnership with the Scottish Chambers of Commerce will create valuable opportunities for Scottish firms and help kickstart economic growth as part of our Plan for Change. 'I have already been to Norway, Singapore, Malaysia, and the United States to bang the drum for Scotland and with this partnership we will take businesses to even more markets. The Scotland Office will be Scotland's window to the world.' Scottish Chambers of Commerce Chief Executive and Director Dr Liz Cameron, CBE, said: 'Delivering impactful trade missions that will sell Brand Scotland and our innovative and dynamic businesses will strengthen our global presence. This partnership with the Scotland Office is vital for economic growth and will help more businesses trade internationally and encourage more inward investment. 'The world wants our quality products and services and this significant investment in Brand Scotland will create even more opportunities to sell our nation internationally. Our businesses continue to successfully engage with SCC overseas missions and now by combining forces between SCC and the Scotland Office, we can drive our economy further by providing valuable platforms and alliances for more exporters to sell their fantastic products and services to new global markets. 'Scotland is open for business and we welcome Brand Scotland's support to allow us to trade with confidence on a world stage.' Leading entrepreneurs from a variety of sectors have also welcomed the agreement. Founder & CEO of Greenock-based PG Paper Dr Poonam Gupta, OBE, said: 'At PG Paper, international trade is the backbone of our business. We have built a multi-million pound business by connecting with over 60 countries. This partnership between the Scottish Chambers of Commerce and the Scotland Office sends a clear message: Scotland is ambitious, outward-looking, and ready to lead. The Scotland Office initiative will help businesses like ours expand our international reach, forge high-value connections, and drive economic impact both at home and abroad. This is exactly the kind of bold, collaborative action Scotland needs to accelerate exports and inspire the next generation of entrepreneurs.' CEO of Aberdeen-based PCL Group Dr Jeanette Forbes, OBE, said: 'As a global IT and energy tech company operating in over 27 countries, we know first-hand how critical international trade is to business growth and innovation. Trade missions are strategic enablers that unlock new markets, foster long-term relationships, and elevate Scotland's global standing. The collaboration between Scottish Chambers of Commerce and the Scotland Office is exactly the type of public-private partnership needed to amplify Scotland's voice on the world stage and grow our economies.' Details of trade missions will be confirmed later. The Secretary of State for Scotland, Ian Murray, (with his younger daughter) and Liz Cameron, CBE Like this: Like Related
