New Improved Financial Strategy

30 May 2008

Eastbourne Borough Council has developed a new improved finance strategy that will evaluate and monitor spending more effectively so ensuring value for money in the delivery of its services.

The strategy provides an efficient system for the allocation of funds. It will enable the Council to review the delivery of special revenue and capital projects by introducing scored project appraisals, and value for money reviews incorporated in the existing annual service planning review.

Cabinet Spokesperson for Finance, Councillor Gill Mattock says, “We are very pleased with all the hard work that has gone into forming this improved financial strategy. It will enable us to prioritise funding more effectively and ensure that residents continue to receive value for money.”
