Councillor David Chance introduced the report confirming the Plan was a key component of the Council’s Policy framework.  He drew specific attention to the missing figures on page 252 of the published agenda and confirmed the report should have read ‘the Council will save between 42m - £67m in the next few years’.

Councillor Bryn Griffiths suggested that it would be helpful if the Plan listed a number of high level smart targets up front, and in response it was confirmed such targets would be set as part of the strategies and policies agreedt by the Council to deliver the Plan.

Resolved – That the following be recommended to full Council for approval at its meeting on 21 February 2024:

i)       The draft Council Plan as shown at Appendix A of the report
