Answer
My officials met with Libraries NI in December 2015 to discuss its 2016/20 Corporate Plan as well as its 2016/17 Business Plan and to provide assistance and direction. Libraries NI’s Business Plans are agreed on an annual basis and not on a 3 year cycle.
Once the Corporate and Business Plans were received they were reviewed by my officials. Any issues were raised and addressed by Libraries NI and the final drafts were forwarded to me for my final approval. I approved the Libraries NI 2016/20 Corporate Plan and 2016/17 Business Plan in July 2016.
