Revenue and Capital Monitoring Outturn PDF 405 KB Division/Wards Affected: N/A Purpose: to provide Members with information on the revenue and capital outturn position of the Authority based on capital slippage and reserve approval and deferment. Author: Mark Howcroft, Assistant Head of Finance Contact Details: markhowcroft@monmouthshire.gov.uk Decision: That Members consider a net revenue outturn of £49k surplus.
That members endorse the revenue surplus for the year being used to replenish Capital Receipts generation reserve, and notes the effective closure of the priority investment reserve, appreciating the use of reserve balances at outturn, the slippage to 2019-20 proposed and the low level of earmarked reserves, which will notably reduce the flexibility the Council has in re-engineering services and facilitating change to mitigate the challenges of scare resources going forward.
That Members note the extent of movements in individual budgeted draws on school balances, and reported recovery plan intentions as a consequence of their approving changes to Fairer Funding guidelines since month 2
That Members note the 81% delivery of the budget setting savings agreed by full Council previously and the implicit remedial action/savings included in the financial monitoring to compensate for circa 20% savings (£951k) reported as delayed or unachievable by service managers.
That Members note the enhanced monitoring of Children’s services and additional learning needs proposed, to supply details for instance of average unit costs, the activity and predicted volume of presentations used in forecasting, to allow services an earlier opportunity to highlight cost pressures and more timeto resolve such by remedial action in year.
That Members consider the capital outturn spend of £70.31m, introducing a £1.015m anticipated overspend, accepts slippage requests of £9.9m being endorsed and the related presumptions made around net financing consequences as per section 3.5. |
