Chorley Flower Show 2017

The request was successful.

Dear Chorley Borough Council,

Chorley Flower Show

Last year your report of 23 November 2015 indicated that the "event budget for 2016 had been set at £40,000 [as] Chorley Council's contribution to the show".

I've not successfully found any report with regards to this years show.

Would you kindly let me know how much was first set for the council contribution to this years 2017 flower show, and the time line of any subsequent changes and amounts made to that figure up to now?

Yours faithfully,

Peter Malpas
