Charging Policy Changes – Norfolk County Council Survey
The Council faces difficult decisions to deliver on its ambitions for the people of Norfolk. Each year, the Council reviews its budget and proposes the savings it will need to make for the following year to balance its budget.
Norfolk County Council conducted their annual budget and council tax consultation for 2024/25 between October and December 2023. However, the Government’s autumn statement and provisional funding settlement, which followed our budget consultation, set out a worse funding position for local authorities than had previously been anticipated. As a result, the Council is £4m worse off than it had expected to be.
Norfolk County Council are now running consultations and one of them is about the Minimum Income Guarantee.
The consultation will run from Monday 19th February until Friday, 17th May and the council is asking people for their views on two proposed changes to the Minimum Income Guarantee.
