MATTERS FOR RECOMMENDATION TO THE CABINET
LAA 11/056 Leisure Services Business Unit - Review of Charges
The joint report of the Chief Leisure Officer and Director of Finance outlined the charging proposals in respect of Larkfield Leisure Centre, Angel Centre, Tonbridge Swimming Pool, Tonbridge Farm All Weather Area and Tonbridge Racecourse Sportsground Games Hut. Reference was made to the later report on financial performance and attention drawn to the need for the charging proposals to be considered within the context of the Leisure Services Business Unit draft revenue estimates which would be reported to the Finance and Property Advisory Board on 4 January 2012. It was noted that proposed charges had been subject to consultation with the Tonbridge Sports Association and members of the Customer Panels at each site.

RECOMMENDED: That

(1) the scale of charges for the Council's leisure facilities, as set out in Annexes 1-3 of the report, be implemented with effect from 1st April 2012;

(2) a further report be submitted to a future meeting of the Advisory Board on the non-participant spectator charge at Larkfield Leisure Centre; and
