Cllr Robinson presented report
F.168 commenting that he was satisfied with the overall overspend
of just £15,000 on a net spend of more than £10 million, which had
been broadly in line with expectations. The council proposed to
maintain the working balance at the level set by the s151 Officer
but reduce requested carry-forwards by approximately two per cent
to make up the shortfall. The Performance and Value for Money
Scrutiny Panel had considered the report earlier in the week and
had requested some responses to questions over detail. These were
available from Democratic Services, but the panel had made no
recommendations to change the report.
The Leader applauded officers
for the small size of the overspend, given current economic
circumstances. He invited questions from members present at the
meeting, but there were none.
RESOLVED – to
a) note the report;
b) approve the revenue and capital carry forwards
contained in Annexes B, D and E.
c)
approve the Capital Financing schedule in Annex B.
