The Council is an efficient and effective organisation and a great place to work Director's notes: Visibly Enhance Culture and Sport - the Council and partners presented a series of successful events to welcome the Queen’s Baton Relay, and to mark the Commonwealth Games. The Royal Commonwealth Pool hosted the diving competition of the Games successfully. Enhanced programming by the Festivals, supported by the Council and other partners, formed part of the cultural programme complementing the Games. The major Commonwealth-themed exhibition at the City Art Centre is presented by the Edinburgh Museums and Galleries and the Edinburgh Art Festival in partnership, as part of this cultural programme. The key risk to the programme remains the potential cessation of Council funding to Edinburgh Leisure for targeted projects. May-14
