This document contains information relating to the Cairngorms National Park Authority's (Park Authority) budget development for the 2021/22 financial year. The paper, prepared by David Cameron, Director of Corporate Services, highlights that there is a significant increase in funding from the Scottish Government for the Park Authority for the financial year. The funding will support programs such as the Cairngorms Peatland Restoration Programme, and will also support operational delivery. The Finance & Delivery Committee is asked to consider the 2021/22 budget position and agree on any further budget development actions before submitting proposals to the Board in March.
