Record of the Decision

 

 

Consideration was given to a report on the draft financial performance and position as at 31 March 2024.

 

The overall financial position was similar to the position projected at the end of December 2023, as outlined in the Budget report in February 2024, with a variance of £163,000 from the previously reported position. 

 

Actions taken to manage the overspend of £7m were agreed as part of the budget report, and the position had continued to be carefully monitored.

 

Members were aware of the financial pressures going forward with the Powering our Futures Programme integral to identifying opportunities for resolving the gap. Further reports would be presented throughout the year providing updates.

 

The Capital Programme had been updated to incorporate new schemes and reflect those schemes completed as at the financial year end.

 

RESOLVED that the outturn position for the year ended 31 March 2024 and the updated Capital Programme be noted.
