Ilminster Division County/District December Monthly Report 2018
ILMINSTER DIVISION COUNTY/DISTRICT DECEMBER MONTHLY REPORT 2018 SCC - FINANCES Mid Term Financial Plan update – there remains a continuing need to save an additional £15m. SCC is aiming to ensure that all potential financial pressures are considered in order to ensure that the budget balances, taking into account factors such as Local Government financial settlements; district-based council tax collections; winter conditions. Children’s services remains the largest spending commitment, along with adult services, especially Learning Disability services. Somerset is one of the counties that will be part of the Business Rate Retention pilot which will mean a financial gain for both Districts and SCC. Government grants during the last five years have been reduced significantly, by over £2m. It is anticipated that for the 2019/20 budget there will be an increase of £5 for band D properties, with an assumed increase of 2.99% p.a. from 2020. Budgets are due to be set in Feb. DSFRS The Corporate Safety and Planning Committee considered a number of options for changes to the current duty system, where there is over, or under, staffing at key times. Planned changes are intended to ensure the service operates on a more flexible basis to allow for greater flexibility and adaptability, to reduce risk, and respond to changes in demand. It is likely that a variety of duty solutions will be tailored to suit the specific area of risk. The service, in addition to being the largest employer of ‘on-call’ firefighters in the country, is also the national industry leader for ‘on-call’ apprenticeships. -
