To consider a report of the Executive Member for Finance and Director of Finance.

Minutes:

The Executive Member for Finance and Director of Finance introduced a report which set out key features of the provisional Settlement which had been announced on 19th December 2012. Given that in some respects the position in respect of Business Rates was not yet clear, delegated arrangements were requested in respect of a number of specific decisions in this area.

 

RESOLVED -

 

(1)       That the Executive provisional settlement be noted and taken into account when formulating final budget proposals.

 

 (2)      That it be noted that the Leader of the Council had delegated authority for the approval of the NNDR1 form (business rates estimate) to the Director of Finance in consultation with the Executive Member for Finance.

 

(3)       That it be noted that the Leader of the Council had delegated to the Director of Finance authority for the approval of payment dates for business rates to the GM Fire and Rescue Service and the GM Pool (if agreed).
