Council Budget

Before the budget can be set, we need to determine:

how much we need to spend to maintain services to an acceptable level
any additional spending pressures such as price increases, pay awards and service developments
the level of savings we can achieve
how much we will receive from Welsh Government

The Budget Strategy is prepared for consideration and examination by Members and we also consult with the public and other interested parties. The budget is set by Executive Board in February and formally approved at County Council in March.

Budget Digest

The Budget Digest brings together, in summary form, our budget information for Revenue (including the Housing Revenue Account) and Capital. It also includes information on council tax levels and is published in April.
