I just wanted to point out that the Place To Be - the city bid, the two New Year's Eve and other celebrations throughout the year - cost just under £340,000 of public money.
Last week, Brighton and Hove saw the investment of £400,000 for the citywide internet portal and an annual amount of £150,000 for theatre production.
These are both projects that flowed directly from the Place To Be and will result in jobs and better services. The Place To Be is in profit. And it's only March.
-Simon Fanshawe, Chairman, The Place To Be
