The report was submitted by Cllr Nia Jeffreys. 

DECISION

To approve the one-off bids of £2,870,280 for 2026/27, to be financed from the Transformation Fund.

DISCUSSION

It was reported that the bids listed in the report were to be financed from the transformation fund.

It was further noted that this was temporary funding to respond to temporary matters, which did not need to be financed permanently through the revenue budget. Some of the bids noted in the report were elaborated upon.

Observations arising from the discussion:

·       The report was welcomed, noting that the better-than-expected settlement received this year had enabled matters that were not key matters to also be included in the bids, for the first time in a long time.
