During the years of austerity there have been
significant increases to the level of Fees and Charges, which have
resulted in pressures across some income budgets. It was decided
that the budget assumptions, agreed by Cabinet on 30th July 2019,
would recommended a nil increase for 2020/21.
Services were requested to review the level of their charges to
identify any opportunities to increase charges above nil inflation,
in order to contribute towards bridging the budget gap.
This report provides Cabinet Members with the proposed fees and
charges by service for 2020/21, and details of any fees and charges
above the 0% general uplift.
