Minutes:
The Board considered a report which provided a high level budget summary of the Council’s revenue and capital income and expenditure for the financial year 2018/2019. As at the end of Quarter 3, it was predicted that the Council’s Revenue Budget would be overspent by £2.7 million before the application of identified one-off funding.
It was noted that this was a small improvement from the Quarter 2 position, however the overspend of £4.2 million in Children’s Services remained a real cause for concern. A moratorium on all spend and recruitment which was not urgent or needed to meet statutory duties continued to be in place.
The Capital Plan budget included £94 million scheduled to be spent in 2018/2019, including £50 million on Investment Fund acquisitions and £13 million on regeneration projects.
Members of the Board raised a number of questions in relation to the current situation in Children’s Services and noted that a more detailed debate would take place at the next meeting of the Board.
