Vale of Glamorgan: Vale of Glamorgan Council Budget Consultation 2024 - 2025
We’ve launched our budget consultation for 2024-25.
The annual funding settlement we receive from Welsh Government makes up just over half of our annual budget. The rest is provided by Council Tax, charges for services, and funding through a proportion of business rates collected across Wales.
Because of the increasing demand on services and rising costs due to inflation we still have a £7.8 million gap in funding for next year.
New Accommodation Offer - new accompanied established Long Term Relationship overseas pilot now live
A new pilot launched today will give Service personnel in registered Long Term Established Relationships (LTR(E)s) greater access to subsidised accommodation abroad. This is another positive step in modernising Defence accommodation policy abroad and our commitment to improve the offer to Service personnel.
The way people live is changing, and Defence’s UK accommodation policy is starting to reflect this. As a result, a disparity between UK and overseas policy has emerged. This overseas pilot, which initially runs from 22 January 2024 to 31 March 2025, aims to tackle this and will give Service personnel in an LTR(E) the opportunity to serve accompanied in the Falkland Islands and Cyprus Sovereign Base Areas using Service Family Accommodation on the same basis as those who are cohabiting or married.
