Not just how it spends its money, but also how it gets money in.
At budget time, we talked about the income generation that was part of the 2011/12 Budget ie
Additional Income Generation - Pest Control 30,000
Budget Re Alignment Income - Env. Health 40,500
Additional Income From Better Waste Management 28,000
Increased Rental Income 2,500
Regeneration - Additional Income Fees 418,689
Additional Fees on Environmental Schemes 4,400
Accountancy Services - Increased Income 21,000
Corporate Services - Additional Income 82,416
Total 627,505
This was all new money, never previously received, and we thought it warranted a full explanation. As I understand it, requests for an explanation were blocked by the Cabinet and the then Chair of Resources Overview and Scrutiny.
Well, now is your chance. Ask for:-
1. A full breakdown of where this 627,505 will be coming from, and who will be paying it to HBC.
2. 7 Weeks into the new financial year, how much of this 627,505 has been secured?
Nobody will be more delighted than me if a satisfactory answer is received.
