Just had a great meeting about ESCIS [East Sussex Community Information Service] with Rhona Drever and Anita Cundell from East Sussex County Council and Nigel Inny [sp] from Brighton & Hove Council. We covered p2b and the various links with ESCIS and what we could do in the future.
I obviously hadn't quite understood how little anyone at ESCIS knows about p2b - I guess I'd used Brighton Council as my key point of contact but little if anything had filtered through to Rhona's level. We agreed that this needing rectifying and suggested more rfegular review-type meetings could help with this.
I also emphasised the need for B&H and East Sussex Council's to imporve communications and take a more strategic joint position to ensure that ESCIS fulfills its real potential as a community information resource.
Not sure what's next but they plan to sort out more structred relationship with SCIP and I will include them [Anita and Rhona] when communicating about p2b.
