Script:
The Hampshire County Council meeting was held on Monday where the council discussed changes and developments that are going to be made.
First on the agenda was the proposal that individual financial assessments are needed for people needing adult social care. Felicity Hindsman, the executive member for adult social care said that the current system was “not fair.”
The council also discussed the need for high speed broadband access across Hampshire. The proposed scheme will cost £3.7 million. Raymond Ellis, the executive for Economic Development and Rural Affairs said “we can’t afford not to do this” and described high speed broadband as “essential.”
Finally the snow fall over last winter is still costing the economy, with £2.2 million needed to replenish the salt stock which was used to grit the roads.
