As detailed in the recommendation.

The Cabinet Member for Corporate Management provided information on the implementation of a revised national Pensioner Grant scheme to those residents in receipt of partial awards under the Council Tax Reduction Scheme (CTRS).

                        The Head of Finance added that data analysis work had been completed across Wales and 2,233 households in Flintshire would qualify for funding of up to £100, although some households would receive less if their net Council Tax liability was less than £100.  Overall the Council would receive funding of £201,700 in order to make the awards.

                        Grant awards would be automatically credited to the Council Tax accounts of qualifying households during the third week in September.

            RESOLVED:

            That the implementation of the revised Welsh Government Pensioner Grant Scheme for 2013-14 as detailed in the report be noted.
