Labour Nottingham City Council :section 114: now Bankrupt
[Commissioners could be brought in to
intervene in the running of "bankrupt" Nottingham City Council, the government has said. The move would remove power from the elected councillors and place it in the hands of a board of officials. It comes as the Labour-run council's chief finance officer issued a section 114 notice over a £23m in-year budget gap. It has until 2 January to make its case. Caps on new spending at the city council have been applied and would remain in place until 2025, according to the Local Democracy Reporting Service. In addition a report, published ahead of an executive board meeting on 19 December, further revealed the council was facing a £53m gap in its budget for the next financial year. In response, the council proposed a raft of new cuts to services, as well as the loss of 554 jobs. Minister for local government, Simon Hoare, confirmed on Wednesday improvements are "not being made quickly enough"] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan...shire-67704025 |
It will likely be another of many to come.
Across councils of both Labour and Con. Plus other combinations of control. Council funding has been cut way too much by central government. |
