Minutes:

The Committee considered the report of the Director of Business Improvement and the Data Intelligence Officer which set out the 2019/20 financial and performance position for the services reporting to the Committee in Quarter 3 and outlined the following points:

 

·  There was an under spend of £216,000 projected for the year against the annual revenue budget of £8.473 million; and

·  There was an anticipated slippage on the capital programme of £4.165 million into 2020/21.

In response to questions from Members, the Officers present advised that:

 

·  The savings on Recycling related to savings from the purchase of wheeled bins;

·  The underspend on the Guaranteed Rent Scheme was due to an increase in popularity of the other two schemes in operation. The Guaranteed Rent Scheme was to be closed to concentrate on the alternative schemes;

 

·  The surplus for Homelessness Outreach was caused by the time between provision of the grant and the Council’s ability to recruit staff. It was confirmed that the grant money would be carried over; and 

 

·  Acceptable levels of litter were calculated using guidance provided by Defra.

 

RESOLVED: That;

 

1. The Revenue position as at the end of Quarter 3 for 2019/20, including the actions being taken or proposed to improve the position, where significant variances have been identified, be noted;

 

2. The Capital position at the end of Quarter 3 be noted; and

 

3. The performance position as at Quarter 3 for 2019/20, including the actions being taken or proposed to improve the position, where significant issues have been identified, be noted.
