Your money, your choice: Budget consultation 2007/08

Each year the city council plans it’s spending for the following year.

The budget consultation process for the 2007/08 budget comprised a number of elements. A number of budget consultation questions were included on a questionnaire issued to the “Big Listening” forum. This consultation process was managed by MORI on behalf of the council and its partners.

In addition questionnaires were issued to people included on the council’s budget consultation database, which includes all members of community committees and tenant associations.

In liaison with the Youth Service questionnaires were issued to young people in Salford.

A public meeting was held on 16th January 2007. A presentation given at the meeting details response rates and views.Some of the issues raised at this meeting were as follows:

  • Crime and safety
  • Youth centres
  • Services for Old people
  • Increase in council tax
  • Recycling
  • Policing
  • Outsourcing of council services
  • Council tax collection

Links to all consultation can be found to the left of this page.

The key issues raised during the process have been taken into consideration by members of the Council as part of the process to determine the budget and council tax levels for 2007/08.
