A £45 million plan to create new “enterprise zones” in West Yorkshire, including three in Bradford, will be discussed - but much of the detail will be withheld from the public.

West Yorkshire Combined Authority is in the process of creating 10 enterprise zones. In Bradford there will be three - on sites 7.06 hectares of land off Gain Lane, 4.1 hectares on Parry Lane and 8.5 hectares of Staithgate Lane.

There would also be a site at Clifton Business Park in Brighouse.

The Leeds City Region Enterprise Partnership Board will discuss plans for the sites at a meeting on Wednesday, and hear that the £45 million will help “accelerate delivery” on the sites.

The Bradford sites will form Phase 2 of the scheme, and business based there will get incentives including up to 100 per cent business rate discount of up to £275,000 over five years.

Funding for the zones includes £20m from the Local Growth Fund.

Details of efforts to bring the sites forward will be discussed in part of the meeting where the press and public will be exempt.

A report to the meeting says: “It is considered that the public interest in maintaining the content of the appendices as exempt outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information as publication at this time could prejudice current and future decision making."
