Budget information

Council Tax Increases and Referendum limits
Doncaster Council has increased its Council Tax by 2.9% for 2021/22.
The increase is made up of 2 elements, a core Council Tax increase of 1.4% as set out
in the 2021/22 Revenue Budget Report and The Adult Social Care Precept of 1.5%. The
Adult Social Care Precept is further explained below. The percentage increases shown
on Council Tax bills must be shown to one decimal place.

Joint Authorities
The South Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Authority has set an increase of 1.99%. Any
increase of 2% or over in 2021/22 in The Fire and Rescue Authority precept would
trigger a local referendum. The South Yorkshire Police and Crime Commissioner has
set an increase of 7.57%. Further information can be found online at:
www.southyorkshire-pcc.gov.uk and at: www.syfire.gov.uk by searching under budget.

Adult Social Care Precept
The Secretary of State made an offer to adult social care authorities. (“Adult social
care authorities” are local authorities which have functions under Part 1 of the Care
Act 2014, namely county councils in England, district councils for an area in England
for which there is no county council, London borough councils, the Common Council of
the City of London and the Council of the Isles of Scilly.) The offer was the option of an
adult social care authority being able to charge an additional “precept” on its council
tax without holding a referendum, to assist the authority in meeting its expenditure on
adult social care from the financial year 2016-17.
It was originally made in respect of the financial years up to and including 2019-20. If
the Secretary of State chooses to renew this offer in respect of a particular financial
year, this is subject to the approval of the House of Commons.

 Retained Business Rates are much lower in 2021/22 due to recovering the deficit from 2020/21 caused by the impact of
 the COVID-19 pandemic. The use of Reserves includes £19m of Government funding received in 2020/21 carried forward
 into 2021/22 to offset the recovery of the Retained Business Rates deficit.

Doncaster Council’s pay policy
statement
The Council is required under section 38(1)
of the Localism Act 2011 to prepare an annual
Pay Policy Statement.
The statement must clearly detail the Council’s
policy for the pay of the workforce, particularly
senior staff and lowest paid employees.
The statement is available on the
Council’s website.
This year, the ratio between the highest and
lowest paid staff has remained at 9.46:1.
This means the highest salary is 9.46
times more than the lowest salary.
The ratio between the highest salary and
average salary has reduced from 6.30:1
to 6.20:1. This means the highest salary
is now 6.20 more than the average salary.
The Council remains committed to reduce
the pay difference and increase low pay.
