Next Monday 28th February Brent Council will set it's annual budget for the year 2011 and 2012. This will be a particularly difficult meeting with the Council forced to make over 47 million pounds of savings next year. The Government have significantly reduced the funding grant avaialble to all local government, not just Brent.
The savings are front loaded so out of a total of 109 million over the next four years nearly a half of the total has to be found immediately.
