This report provides the latest update on the approach to responding to the opportunities, challenges and uncertainty outlined within the review of the medium-term financial plan. The report restates the commitment to progressing collective ambitions for Stockport by delivering impactful and outcomes-focused transformational change for communities and businesses across Stockport. However, it also recognises that a resilient budget is key to this by enabling us to face and respond to the unprecedented uncertainty ahead.
This report builds on previous updates to scrutiny and cabinet and presents the cabinet’s change proposals for final consideration ahead of Budget Council in February 2022.
The Cabinet is recommended to:-
