- Corporate Policy Group meeting to deal with the upcoming budget..this is where we get to see any major issues around having to balance the books for the council and we start to really see what sorts of solutions might be on the able. Like any entity, the council has income and expenditure, and to balance the books, we either have to increase the income or cut the expenditure…. the consequences of either are significant for all the citizens in Clare, so decisions are not taken lightly and its often a case of trying to be fairest across all sectors of our society. It’s impossible to please everyone.
