Budget Monitoring 2019/020 - Quarter One PDF 379 KB To note the current position in respect of the Council’s Revenue and Capital Budgets for 2019/2020. Additional documents:
Minutes: The Cabinet noted the contents of the submitted report which provided a high level budget summary of the Council’s revenue and capital income and expenditure for 2019/2020 as at quarter one. The report had also been discussed at the Overview and Scrutiny Board on 19 September 2019.
The Deputy Head of Finance outlined the salient points within the report and advised that as a consequence of quarter one performance a moratorium on spend was introduced but this has not had as much of an impact as it did on last year. The report predicted an overspend up to £4.2m by the end of the financial year and highlighted mitigating actions taken by the Senior Leadership Team, which included bringing forward savings and use of reserves. Members noted that, whilst the net balanced budget had not improved the changes coming forward for quarter two provided greater assurance that the Council would deliver a balanced budget.
