Amendment 1

 

Councillor C A Holley proposed an amendment.  The amendment was seconded by Councillor E W Fitzgerald.  The amendment being:

 

“i)       Increase the amount of money saved from 3rd Party spend from £3,000,000 to £8,000,000.  This addition means less than a 5% cut in budget of over £130 million.

 

ii)       Cut Council Tax to 3.5% at a cost of £1.3 million.

 

iii)       As you see from above we could then put a net £3.7 million back into school delegated budgets negating almost all of the proposed reductions (about 75% of the reduction).”

 

The Leader of the Council asked the Section 151 Officer whether the proposed budget amendment by the Leader of the Largest Opposition Political Group Leader was valid.  The Section 151 Officer stated that whilst he supported that the amendment be debated at Council, he was not in a position to recommend its adoption to Council on the basis that it would produce a significant element of risk to the Revenue Budget 2015-2016.  The risk being that the savings suggested, when added to the proposals recommended by Cabinet, would result in an overall unallocated savings target of £8m within the Revenue Budget 2015-2016.

 

In accordance with Council Procedure Rule 30 “Voting” a recorded vote was requested.  The voting on the amendment was recorded as follows:

iii)              The net balance of schemes carried over from 2013-2014 into 2014-2015 and schemes carried over from 2014-2015 into 2015-2016.

v)              Appendix E “General Fund Capital Budget 2014-2015 to 2018-2019”;
