RESOLVED:
1. That the key findings of the CIPFA review be noted and commitment to addressing the issues identified was affirmed.
2. That the finance improvement plan set out in Annex 2 to the report be approved.
3. That the tasks, actions and deliverables assigned to the Cabinet in the finance improvement plan and that the Leader would initially lead on finance was agreed.
Reason for Decisions:
To remedy the financial position the Council faced would require the commitment of Members and officers to make difficult decisions on where savings could be made. Supporting the finance improvement plan would demonstrate that the Council had the collective drive to resolve the financial difficulties outlined in the CIPFA review.
