| Conclusion | As part of the Resources 10/11 savings, it is proposed to cease the £50.00 annual spring bonus. As a result of the current economic climtae, the Council has been required to make some tough choices. Following the impact assessment undertaken, the Council has reached the conclusion that the implementation of this saving will not have any significant impact on any equality group.
