For 2015 to 2016 we have 205 million. Insert your own figures in the box for each service to show how much you think should be spent on each area. Make sure that your budget does not exceed 205 million in total. (Please note we do not have ultimate control of Greater Manchester levies and charges, but we still think it is important to know your views on these charges so we can discuss with other organisations and in some cases reduce these amounts by working with you, e.g. by recycling more and sending less general waste to landfill) Service 2014 to to 2016 Support for older people and people with disabilities Looking after children Housing and homelessness Education and skills Waste, recycling and street cleaning Leisure, culture and libraries Recreation and sport Highways, transport and street lighting Local tax collection Developing communities, keeping them safe and preventing crime Parks and open spaces Planning and building control Attracting and retaining jobs Trading standards and environmental health Public health and health improvement Levies and charges Capital financing Other services Totals 47.9 million 41.4 million 15.3 million 14.2 million 7 million 6.3 million 4.7 million 4.1 million 3.6 million 3.5 million 1.9 million 1.7 million 1.3 million 1.1 million 0.2 million 35.2 million 33.7 million 2.4 million million max 205 million

Introduce new salary sacrifice schemes - potential saving 150,000/ 150,000 This proposal would extend the range of staff benefits offered at no cost and reduce national insurance costs to the council through salary sacrifice schemes and voluntary buying of additional leave.
10 Your comments Improving customer access - potential saving 0/ 1,591,000 This proposal is to provide new and easy ways for customers to use digital channels for high volume areas of service requests, allowing people to self serve, including reporting problems and completing transactions to reduce the number of telephone to council teams. Information will be used to take early, preventative measures to avoid pressure on high cost services. Parks and open spaces Reduction in culture and leisure budget and redesign of services - potential saving 250,000/ 250,000 In this proposal the council would, in conjunction with Salford Community Leisure, redesign services: examine integration of parks with leisure services, change the way support services are provided and explore neighbourhood working opportunities. Review Red Rose Forest contribution - potential saving 30,000/ 30,000 This proposal would review the contributions from other local authorities which benefit from the service and could result in the consideration of the withdrawal of funding to the Red Rose Forest. Planning and building control Review environment and climate resources - To be confirmed This proposal is to reduce the demand on the council s environment and climate change services to take advantage of the work undertaken at a Greater Manchester wide level. Public health and health improvement Savings from drugs and alcohol service redesign - potential saving 50,000/ 93,000 This proposal has come from the redesign of drug and alcohol services, which focuses on the recovery from drug and alcohol use enabling local people to return to healthy productive lives after they have had problems with drugs or alcohol. Changes have made efficiencies with service providers and the new service will reduce the amount of money spent on expensive substance misuse treatments.
11 Your comments Redesign prevention of long term conditions services - potential saving 375,000/ 375,000 This proposal brings together a number of services that promote public messages around the importance of preventing smoking, cancer, stroke and heart disease. There is an overlap in some of these common messages, and through redesign the council could make savings and make it easier for Salford people to engage with one service. Redesign of stop smoking support - potential saving 50,000/ 250,000 This proposal reviews this support as there has been a reduced demand for stop smoking services. This is largely down to the increased use of e-cigarettes. Review wellbeing services and obesity management - potential saving 194,000/ 644,000 This proposal would create a more cohesive approach across a range of wellbeing services provided by a number of organisations to enable people to look after their own health and wellbeing and stay healthy for as long as possible. Review the sexual health budget - potential saving 0/ 500,000 This proposal is to review sexual health services to plan a more cost effective way of delivering in partnership with other Greater Manchester councils, purchasing sexual health services together. The new services will meet both the needs of Salford residents but also achieve much greater value for money. Release funding - potential saving 193,000/ 193,000 This proposal will reallocate project funding and remove vacant posts within Public Health budgets. These budgets supported the move of Public Health into the council and are no longer needed in this area. Change Health Improvement Service - potential saving 1,000,000/ 1,000,000 This proposal is to include health improvement services as part of a re-design of neighbourhood support services, helping local people to organise and support themselves, reducing costs.
12 Support for older people and people with disabilities Your comments Integrated care programme alliance - potential saving 3,176,000/ 5,448,000 This proposal is for a new service aiming to provide better outcomes for older people, improved experiences of health and social care services and lower costs. This is not a service reduction but is about four key organisations coming together to pool budgets and resources and reduce duplication. Create adult social care mutual - potential saving 0/ 500,000 This proposal is to continue plans to create a mutual company to provide adult social care and ensure the continuation of safe, quality, sustainable social care for the most vulnerable people. Cost savings will be made as the mutual company generates income and reduces reliance on the council. Redesign commissioning of services - potential saving 60,000/ 110,000 This proposal is to redesign services into a single integrated team responsible for commissioning health, social care and housing related support. Continue review of care and support packages for people with adult social care needs - potential saving 125,000/ 175,000 This proposal is to continue the review of care and support for vulnerable people, ensuring needs are met and people are supported to live as independently as possible. Review and update of charging policy for adult social care services - potential saving 20,000/ 50,000 This proposal is to review and update the charging policy for adult social care to meet the requirements of the Care Act, protect the most vulnerable and ensure an equitable and consistent approach to charges. Trading standards and environmental health Review charging for pest control - potential saving 20,000/ 20,000 This proposal is to amend charges to reflect the costs of pest control work undertaken on behalf of other organisations.
13 Your comments Increase bereavement services charges - potential saving 80,000/ 80,000 This proposal is to review and benchmark our adult cremation and burials fees to be in line with the costs of the service. Waste, recycling and street cleansing Make efficiencies in street cleansing/grounds maintenance - potential saving 390,000/ 390,000 This proposal would adjust maintenance standards on certain roads and pathways in parks to better focus on the needs of local areas. Review buying policy for wheeled bins - potential saving 158,000/ 158,000 This proposal is to review the way we buy wheelie bins as there are potential savings as a result of the existing contract coming to an end. Reduce costs in fleet management - potential saving 372,000/ 634,000 This proposal is a reduction on revenue spend on the provision of council vehicles taking advantage of an existing contract coming to an end. Increase income from trade waste service - potential saving 50,000/ 50,000 This proposal is for increased income from the collection of trade waste through business growth. Waste disposal - potential saving 80,000/ 80,000 This proposal would take the opportunity to revise the contract for the disposal of certain waste arising as a result of activities undertaken by the council. Reduce costs of waste management - potential saving 696,000/ 696,000 This proposal would reduce operating costs of the waste disposal service by securing efficiencies in relation to supplies, services and other ancillary costs.
