Key decisions are made by Torbay Council in accordance with its constitution. In Schedule 8 of the Partnership Agreement a key decision is defined as a decision in relation to the exercise of Council functions, which is likely to: result in incurring additional expenditure or making of savings which are more than £250,000 result in an existing service being reduced by more than 10% or may cease altogether affect a service which is currently provided in-house which may be outsourced or vice versa and other criteria stated within schedule 8 of the Partnership Agreement.
