Update 4 January 2021

Thank you to those that took part in the Budget Consultation. The Consultation Report is now available in the Summary of Results section below. The Draft Budget report with detailed spending and saving plans for 2021-22 is also available.

The reports will be considered by Members (Councillors) at their Cabinet Committee meetings taking place throughout January 2021 before the budget is debated and approved by County Council in February 2021.

Kent County Council (KCC) is potentially facing the biggest financial challenge next year, bigger than anything we have seen over the last 10 years.  It is vital that we take account of as many people’s views as possible to inform the very difficult decisions we may have to make.  We are seeking your views on potential areas of spending reductions and the level of Council Tax to help us shape and balance our 2021-22 Budget. Your responses will be considered by Members (Councillors) at their Cabinet Committee meetings taking place throughout January 2021 before the budget is debated and approved by County Council in February 2021.
