Medium-Term Financial Strategy

The purpose of the Council's Medium-Term Financial Strategy is to support the Council's corporate planning process and to indicate the resource issues and principles, which will be used to shape the Council's annual budget development and medium term financial plans. 

It sets out the current and projected financial forecasts over a three-year planning timeline and is aimed at supporting the development of the Council's budget over this period.

The strategy provides the framework against which the Council will plan and manage its resources to enable the effective delivery of its key plans and strategies aimed at delivering excellent and value for money services to its wide range of stakeholders as set out in the Corporate Strategy - Delivering Excellence

Updates have been made to the Strategy document to reflect the impact of the current economic climate, changes in legislation and/or updates within the public sector financing regime including the Local Government Finance Settlement for 2009/10.
