Councillors in Merthyr Tydfil have raised concern about their settlement from Welsh Government next year and funding to tackle homelessness.
A report to full council on Wednesday, February 2 mentioned that the provisional local government settlement includes a 9% increase (£9.1m) for Merthyr Tydfil which is currently on course for a budget surplus of £503,000 before a decision is made on council tax.
But Councillor Geraint Thomas highlighted that last year Merthyr Tydfil had the third best settlement – and this year they have the 16th best.
