Use of resources

Underpinning all of this is the imperative to use all available resources effectively. Every pound that Birmingham spends on care must represent a pound well spent. The pressures on the Council’s resources are enormous and it is essential that resources are maximised.

In order to deliver this element of the strategy, the continued review of the use of resources provides a framework for moving resources from areas where best value is not being delivered to areas where it can. This is not a one-off exercise and there is on-going monitoring and review of spend to ensure available resources are maximised. This continues to work alongside the Council’s long-term budget planning and management processes. This will set the direction for future consideration of savings proposals for ASC and health.
