Spending clamp down at the Town Hall ,


THE Ribble V a lley Council has tightened its capital expenditure belt to the tune of £300,000, members of the Policy and Resources Commit­ tee were told this week. And a second phase of the


authority’s economy drive is likely to be a clamping down on day to day expenditure by the council’s various depart-


' ments. . Committee members heard


at their Tuesday meeting that £300,454 has been knocked off the current year’s expendi­ ture estimates following a plea to all service committees to try to reduce spending by 10 per cent. The figure saved in fact represents more than 17 per cent of the expenditure originally estimated. The curtailing of running


correctly run, but we live in exceptional times and in cir­ cumstances th a t require exceptional remedies. We must be parsimonious even to the degree of being tight- fisted. We may even have to go to the extreme of curtailing services." Even small savings would


eventually become substan­ tial, said Coun. Fell. For example, switching heating off half an hour earlier could save hundreds of pounds over


a year. Coun. F e l l’s proposal,


which called for chief officers to look into ways and means of saving money and report back in six weeks’ time, met with limited opposition. Ribble Valley Mayor Coun.


Tom Robinson pointed out th a t d e p a r tm e n ts were

James Fell (Whalley) who called for “an immediate survey of the work and commitments of the indi­ vidual departments with a view to e liminating all unnecessary expenditure and waste and to effecting wide­ spread economies as soon as possible.” Stressing that his motion


was not intended as a criticism of council officers, Coun. Fell commented: “I am satisfied that all our departments are


already overworked without having to undertake such sur­ veys. “This could represent more expenditure than the money it would save,” he com­


mented. But Policy and Resources


Committee chairman Coun. Bill Fleming said that the pro­ cess had to an extent already been started through the capi­ tal expenditure reduction. Such a survey could be carried out, although probably not within six weeks. Capital expenditure saving was led by the Housing Com­
