PART I OPEN COMMITTEE
1. Apologies for Absence
2. 2016/17 Budget
The purpose of this Joint Scrutiny meeting is to enable all Scrutiny Committee Members to consider the Council s budget proposals, across all service areas, and to examine the implications of those proposals for the Council s draft revenue budget and capital programme for 2016/17. The meeting may wish to consider whether it wishes to draw to the attention of the Cabinet any particular issues or make any observations upon the proposals relating thereto.
In light of Government s announcement of the public health grant not having been received or expected until after the date of the Health Wellbeing Scrutiny Committee, consideration of the proposed budget for Public Health will, if circumstances permit, take place at this meeting. A Joint Report of the County Treasurer and the Director of Public Health on the proposed public health budget for 2016/17 will therefore be circulated, if possible, as soon as it is available or be tabled at the meeting.
In addition to the above and the detailed budget papers previously considered by individual Scrutiny Committees (referred to below and enclosed separately with this Agenda) the meeting will also be provided, as soon as is practicable, with a summary of issues or themes identified by individual Committees and by Scrutiny Committee Chairmen Vice-Chairmen (arising from the Plenary Session scheduled for 28 January 2016) to facilitate and enable discussion of a single, cohesive, set of recommendations to Cabinet and the Council on the overall implications of the budget proposals:
(a) People s Services (CT/16/4 - supplementary information 
CT/16/4);
(b) Place Services (CT/16/5 - supplementary information CT/16/5);
(c) Corporate Services (CT/16/6 - supplementary information CT/16/6).
