Alongside this the council may externalise its car parking service to another provider.
This budget reduction will result in 5 bus services remaining.
Services will reduce by 8 leaving 12 bus services across the county.
(A public consultation exercise has just closed on this issue - the results from this and the simulator will inform a final decision)
Resources for people with advanced dementia may be affected. Current residents of residential care may need to be supported to return to live in the community.
This could have significant risks for individuals.
We would replace some key care and support services with new assistive technologies and clients would have to undertake more activities with the support of friends/family.
New technologies would be used to support independence
.
Further reduction in the number of staff in the service.
Reduction in the number of staff in the service.
A budgetary reduction of this size would mean that the service would need to implement non-residential solutions for protecting children at risk of abuse. There may be an impact on the quality and responsiveness of the service.
We would need to provide a greater level of alternative non-residential arrangements for protecting children at risk of abuse including a further expansion of trained foster carers.
We would need to identify and develop sufficiently skilled foster carers that are available and provide a package of support to meet the child's need. The council has a statutory responsibility to protect children at risk of abuse and the numbers requiring protection at any one time can be unpredictable.
This would result in the need to be wholly reliant upon voluntary support and support from the wider family where appropriate. This approach may present a greater risk for the child and family.
This could place additional pressure on families. There would be a need for the service to rely significantly upon alternative solutions such as a greater reliance upon voluntary support and an expectation that support is provided by the wider family where appropriate.
This could place additional pressure on families and would require the development of alternative support solutions .
This action could result in an increase in the number of children being looked after by the council and could potentially place the council at risk of being unable to meet its legal and regulatory obligations should there be a failure to adopt robust alternative delivery arrangements.
The service would need to be delivered in an alternative way including a significant reliance upon the voluntary sector and a greater community involvement.
This action would result in the need to adopt alternative approaches for meeting the service shortfall including a greater reliance upon the voluntary sector.
This would mean that the Council would become almost wholly reliant upon external organisations, agencies and individuals (particularly the voluntary sector) delivering these services. This may present a risk of higher incidences of young people commiting criminal offences and a greater number of children and young people needing to be looked after by the Council should the services provided be inferior to those presently delivered. It also presents a greater risk of the Council not being able to meet its statutory obligations.
This action would result in a significant reliance upon organisations, agencies and individuals external to the Council delivering the services on its behalf. This may present a risk that a gerater number of young people commit criminal offences and a corresponding impact on communities of increased crime and anti-social behaviour.
We would need to adopt more cost effective methods of delivering these services whilst providing appropriate levels of support to children and young people at risk. These alternative delivery models will likely involve a greater reliance upon organisations and agencies external to the Council.
Breakfast clubs will continue to be provided but there will be a charge for the non- statutory supervision / care provision. It is possible that this action could reduce attendance at the breakfast clubs and force them to close.
Cease or franchise catering in staff canteens
Stop catering in smaller schools and a greater reliance upon export of meals from larger schools
Cease or franchise Catering in Staff Canteens
Review viability of catering in staff canteens and consider franchising options.
Very considerable additional costs to be met by the Authority and special schools in keeping them clean and maintaining hygiene standards.
Loss of at least one of the remaining 3 shire museums.
Reduction in funding to Powys Theatres and support for the arts restricted to grants from external organisations.
Reduction in number of Council-supported Museums to core Shire museums. Reduction in funding to Powys Theatres and support for the arts restricted to grants from external organisations.
Residents would have to travel even greater distances to access sports and leisure facilities, opening hours are likely to be limited and the range of facilities available would be focused upon the most popular.
This action will mean that residents will have to travel further to access leisure facilities and the range of activities available would be reduced.
This action will mean that residents will need to travel further to access leisure facilities.
Provision of information largely restricted to on-line only.
Substantial withdrawal of the service from large parts of the county leading to a possible increase in the number of complaints and court action.
Rights of Way falling into severe disrepair
Heavier reliance on voluntary assistance
A potential rise in the number of complaints and court action.
Reduction in the number of rights of way kept open
A rise in the number of complaints and court action as a result of rights of way falling into disrepair.
This will result in the majority of services being delivered in partnership or sourced externally. There will be little capacity to support service change and improvement. Services would be focused upon managing service and organisational risk.
This will result in corporate support services needing to work in partnership with other organisations to deliver a shared service. There will be reduced capacity to provide business, legal, financial and administrative support to help front line services and a reduced ability to respond to changing organisational demands.
The increased time to process applications will affect market confidence and investment with a potential impact on jobs and growth.
The Council would struggle to undertake its statutory functions.
People's well being could be at risk from infectious diseases and poor food hygiene. Animals could be at risk as there would be fewer inspections taking place.
The Council would not be able to continue its support for a wide range of voluntary services.
Grant funding to Tourist Information Centres would stop and Brecon TIC would move to the new Cultural Hub.
This reduction would result in less support for local voluntary groups.
