Falkirk Council is working on the 2022/23 budget, with an online survey and Conversation events to gather people’s thoughts on priorities for the budget.

Online Survey

The survey provides an opportunity for people to share what they think the council’s spending priorities should be for the year ahead. The views expressed in this survey will be shared with the Councillors who will make final decisions on where public funds will be allocated, in March 2022.

The deadline for responses is Saturday 29^th January.

To submit your response, or for further information, please visit the Falkirk Council website.
