Redbridge Conversation 2012
Last year the Council agreed a three-year plan to save £25m as
part of the Government's plans to reduce public spending. We are on
track to meet our target and have to save a further £7m over
two years.

About the last Redbridge Conversation
In September 2010, we asked residents how we should save £25
million over three years. You said you wanted to:
- see the Council become more efficient and
reduce ‘back office’ cost
- see education and schools protected, but
accepted that some services including social care, leisure and
regeneration would be reduced.
These priorities were reflected in Council’s Budget for 2010/11.
