The RBWM Financial Horror Story continues

Posted on October 24, 2024October 24, 2024 by ecwlarcombe

The RBWM Financial Horror Story (actually the original CIPFA Report) continues and has now been updated ready for consideration at the RBWM Cabinet Meeting on 30th October.

Extracts from Page 4 of 35

The longer-term financial sustainability of RBWM is dependent on remedying the funding gap
generated by the council tax reductions and reducing its debt burden.

The council should not underestimate the need for this separate recovery plan to provide a sound base from which to move forward if any improvement or indeed transformation is going to be successful.

The (DRAFT) FISP here

Which just leaves the question:  So who will be held accountable for this fiasco?
