I can't understand the confusion over the figures ... is someone trying to hide something or am I just a confused colonial?

All the minutes as far as 2004 are available on the council website:
Council
The budget minutes are normally in Feb or March of each year. If you want to go back further the minutes are available at the Library.
All my figures are direct from council minutes which I took a long time to research, the percentages (in terms of how much tax has increased) have been worked out by me afterwards. All the confusion was because g jones was working the percentages out wrong so we had conflicting figures.
