I can today announce that Cornwall Council will be looking at freezing Cornwall's Council tax for the second year in a row. This years budget process has been going for three weeks and' the Conservative led administration have been able to meet the central government figures to allow the freeze to take place again this year.
There will be several interesting and intriguing on the budget papers that will be brought out over the coming days and weeks.
Going for an early budget last year allowed us to make considerable savings earlier and having been recognised nationally for the rigorousness of our financials we now have some flexibility as to what we can do this year.
As one Wadebridge resident said to me today, "you can rely on the Conservatives to deliver value for money for the taxpayer".
I would like to thank the hard working officers of the council and the cabinet who have been firm but fair over the last two years. WELL DONE :)
As a fiscal conservative, I believe one of the most important roles the federal government can play in assuring that our economy remains strong is to keep our fiscal house in order.
