FinPro - Council survey on rate, budget and reporting decisions.

FinPro is continuing to advocate on behalf of members on a range of topics. We undertook a survey on rates, budgets and annual accounts a month ago and are looking to update those results now that councils are further progressed in their planning.

Completion of this survey by ONE person from each council would be greatly appreciated. The results will be shared with our membership in next Friday's Member Update.

Thank-you
