    Birmingham CIty Council to cut 2,000 jobs The job losses, outlined in a newly published financial plan, will form part of a major cost-cutting drive.

    The council said between 1,500 and 2,000 funded posts were ”likely” be cut at a time when the authority is ”moving towards more of a commissioning role in the delivery of services”.

    Council leader Mike Whitby said: ”We are well aware that all the forecasts indicate the next few years will be tough for local government financially.

    ”Quite simply we have to do more for less.

    ”In our budget we have, therefore, planned strategically and propose budgets that address the key priority areas that we have laid out in our Council Plan.”

    Last month it emerged that 1,300 staff at the council had been issued with Section 188 notices, notifying them that they were at risk of being made redundant.

    A council spokesman said: ”Any of those 1,300 posts that are made redundant will form part of the 1,500-2,000 figure being quoted today.”  read more at http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/7208033/Birmingham-CIty-Council-to-cut-2000-jobs.html
