  • Double Counting of Salaries

    • Reference: 2002/0236-1
    • Question by: Elizabeth Howlett
    • Meeting date: 13 November 2002
    Why is the cost of the retention of officers following the implementation of C3i being included in the part year cost of additional officers recruited (£48.1m) and being charged to the 2003/4 precept when the salaries of these officers are already in the core budget? Do you agree that without a corresponding negative budget figure in savings that this is double counting? If you do not agree, please clarify the position.
