General Fund Revenue Budget, Capital & Treasury Management Strategy 2022/23

Extract from the proceedings of the Policy & Resources Committee meeting held on the 10 February, together with a report of the Chief Financial Officer.

Minutes:

83.1         The mayor noted that the principal budget items listed as Items 83  and 85 would be debated together, along with Item 84 Supplementary Financial Information, once the proposed budget and various amendments had been moved and seconded.

 

83.2         He therefore invited Councillor Gibson to propose the budget for 2022//23.

 

83.3         Councillor Gibson thanked the mayor and formally moved the budget proposals on behalf of the Administration, together with the one Green Group amendment and the joint Green and Labour amendment.

 

83.4         Councillor Mac Cafferty spoke on the budget position and formally seconded the proposals together with the Green Group amendment and the joint Green and Labour amendment.

 

83.5         Councillor Appich spoke on the budget and formally moved the Labour Group’s amendments No’s 1 – 4, together with the joint Green and Labour amendment .

 

83.6         Councillor Allcock spoke on the budget and formally seconded the Labour Group’s amendments together with the joint Green and Labour amendment.

 

83.7         Councillor McNair spoke on the budget and formally moved the Conservative Group’s amendments No’s 1 – 6.

 

83.8         Councillor Bell spoke on the budget and formally seconded the Conservative Group’s amendments.

 

83.9         The mayor then opened the matter up to a general debate and the following Members of the Council spoke on the various amendments that had been put forward as well as the general prevailing budget proposals and budget position.

 

Councillors Heley, Williams, Barnett,  Janio, Powell, Wilkinson, Brown, Knight and Hugh-Jones.

 

83.10      The mayor noted that the meeting had been in session for just over two hours and declared that he would adjourn for a refreshment break from 6.32  to 7.03pm.

 

83.11      The mayor reconvened the meeting at 7.03pm and continued with the debate, during which the following Members spoke on various amendments that had been put forward as well as the general prevailing budget proposals and position.

 

Councillors O’Quinn, Lewry, Davis, Moonan, Meadows, Hills, Childs, Mears, Shanks, O’Quinn (with the mayor’s agreement on behalf of Cllr Hamilton), Nemeth, Ebel, Platts, Peltzer Dunn, Phillips, Yates, Simson, Osborne, Grimshaw, Theobald, Lloyd, Fowler, Druitt, Evans and Deane.

 

83.12      The mayor noted that all Members wising to speak during the debate had done so and called on Councillor Clare to respond to the debate and the amendments on behalf of the Administration.

 

83.13      Councillor Clare thanked the mayor and stated that it had been a good and useful debate overall. She felt that although a number of the amendments could not be accepted, there were a lot of good suggestions that could be taken into consideration and possibly incorporated into future decisions. She therefore hoped that the budget proposals together with the amendments that could be accepted would be approved and recommended it to Council.

 

83.14      The mayor stated that in view of the fact that the amendments related to the General Fund, he intended to put each one to the vote.  However, he would call on the Chief Finance Officer to confirm the budgetary position should any amendment be carried and have an impact on the overall budget as necessary.  He would then put the substantive recommendations to the vote as outlined in the procedural rules and also noted that the outcome of the voting would be recorded in full.

 

83.15      The mayor then put the Green Group amendment to the vote.
