Councillor Phil Davies, Leader of the Council, said: “Making sure Members of all parties have the chance to properly scrutinise the council budget and the proposals to save money is vital. It brings the expertise and experience of all Members into the process, and always generates helpful debates and constructive feedback. The Cabinet places on record its thanks to every Member who participated in this process.” |
The Leader of the Council introduced a report which set out the feedback from the Council’s Overview and Scrutiny Committees in relation to the Budget Proposals for 2019/20. This followed a series of budget scrutiny workshops held during December and January. A report from each committee was included as an appendix to this report, and captured the issues raised and general feedback from Overview and Scrutiny Committee Members at the workshop sessions.
The Leader stated that Cabinet had studied the feedback from the Scrutiny Workshops in detail and had incorporated ideas where appropriate. He added that Cabinet wished to record its appreciation and thanks to all Members who took part in the process.
As the report addressed the proposals for the 2019/20 budget, it related to all Wirral Plan pledges and all wards in the borough.
The report was not a key decision.
RESOLVED:
That the content of the reports be noted.
