BBC NEWS | Cambridgeshire | Capped council considers job cuts Services and jobs are under threat at a council that has been budget-capped by the government. South Cambs Council is considering cutting 25 jobs, slash community grants and other public services. The cuts, to save £1.65m this year and £2.74m next financial year, have still to be approved by the full council. Council leader Sebastian Kindersley said they had tried to protect front-line services but the authority is already "pared to the bone".
