    Minutes:

    Arising from a report of the Group Manager for Finance, the Audit Committee had recommended that the updated Debt Collection Policy and associated appendices be approved.

     

    The Cabinet Member for Finance outlined the contents of the report stating that there was no change in the policy, it had been refreshed and made more transparent.  The authority had a good record of debt recovery which had been demonstrated by the high level of Council Tax collection

     

    Consideration was given to: a corporate approach to debt collection across all of the work streams rather than individual departments.

     

    RESOLVED that the recommendations of the Audit Committee be approved.

     

    (Proposed by Cllr P H D Hare-Scott and seconded by Cllr Mrs M E Squires).
