Shropshire Council could face more ‘unsavoury’ decisions in order to get its huge budget deficit under control, the councillor in charge of its finances has warned.

The comments came in response to criticism from opposition leaders over the council’s money management, with cabinet member Gwilym Butler saying he would “not shy away” from the fact that tough choices had to be made.

With the help of an external consultancy firm, the council plans to completely overhaul how services are delivered this year in order to address its enduring deficit once and for all. “I do worry that the overall situation on the council has not changed, we are just moving the chairs around on the Titanic if you like.

Councillor Butler responded that opposition groups had the chance to put forward alternative budget proposals before the council’s 2023/24 budget was approved, as part of its medium-term financial strategy , earlier this year.
