Additional documents: Minutes: Ms J. Pickering, Executive Director Finance and Resources, introduced the report which set out the proposed Efficiency Plan for the Council. The Plan had been deferred from the meeting of the Council on 21st September. The Council’s approach had subsequently been discussed at a meeting of the Budget Scrutiny Task Group.

· the risk assumption had been reviewed; · some details had been included for each proposed efficiency item; · savings had been identified once rather than against each year of the Plan.
Councillor G Denaro proposed, Councillor R. Smith seconded and it was
RECOMMENDED
That the Efficiency Plan 2016/17 – 2019/20 as detailed in Appendix 1 to the report be approved for submission to Central Government to enable a 4 year financial settlement to be secured.
