Budget by service

In 2005/06 the County Council will invest an extra £29m on Education and £15m in social care. All other services including non-schools services provided by the Education department will have base budget (inflation only) increases.

The County Council has used some money from reserves in 2005/06. This was done in part to protect taxpayers from the impact on 2005/06 council tax of the change in 2003/04 to the way in which the Government allocates grant which adversely affected Hampshire.
