2012/2013 Budget Consultation

We want the public to be more involved in shaping where we spend our limited resources. In December 2012 we conducted  a Budget consultation on the 2012/2013 Budget,  setting out some key issues and inviting residents to give us their views on to help us make the right decisions when setting our spending plans. We received 75 responses to the consultation.  The pdf icon Budget Consultation 2012/13 Feedback [275kb]  gives details of the feedback we received and the action we have taken to date and will take in the future.
