    In at least 14 years the amount has stayed the same, has inflation stayed the same? I have seen CC's give more than the allowed amount of £50 to community groups and I don't understand how they can do that if it has come from the admin grant. Donations given from fundraised money is different. Perhaps the allowance of £50 should be increased also along with the grant. Nowadays we have, data sims for laptop, software subscriptions, bank charges to pay. I think that the ICO subscription should be paid by South Ayrshire Council and not come out of the admin grant, just like the insurance.

      But, more support from SAC would be helpful e.g. communication provided with attractive graphic design that can be printed or published directly on the Internet social media platforms.
